Gah, that's way more work than should be required. Did the module eventually load and just not work well, or were the instructions in my message or in the kernel handbook broken? (The latter would be a very serious bug, more serious than any particular instance of missing hardware support.) > Just before you take work into a new patch, let me first try kernel-3.4, which > might be also possible to be released into next debian stable. Ben told so. I think you misunderstood, unfortunately. The wheezy kernel will be 3.2.y, but individual drivers can be backported when the new version is well tested. > I tested 3.1, 3.2, 3,5 and 3.6, but NOT 3.4!

Did you forget to run scripts/config --disable DEBUG_INFO? Sorry for the trouble and hope that helps. Sincerely, Jonathan
