Its not - but the previous load of the kernel ovs module had left it loaded. 'rmmod gre' and then reloading the ovs module fixed this up - I'll update the docs - the init script needs to take this into account; BTW I've been working on upstart configurations for openvswitch-switch - would you like me to submit those as patches as well? >>> Anyway; I'm going to take a slightly different course of action >>> for Ubuntu 13.10; I have a DKMS module what now no longer >>> crashes BUT can't register GRE on a 3.11 kernel - which >>> supports it natively anyway so this feels like less of an >>> issue. >>> >>> So the advice for Ubuntu 13.10 will be - for GRE use the native >>> kernel module; for anything else use the DKMS module. > I agree this should work, although I'm afraid that it might be > fairly confusing to users since oftentimes people don't realize > there is a difference or have the wrong module loaded. I think this is no longer applicable now I've figured out what was blocking GRE protocol registration. - -- James Page Ubuntu and Debian Developer james.p...@ubuntu.com jamesp...@debian.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSGGi8AAoJEL/srsug59jDD20P/R0KKtn23GLtOr1z/Gx1tUF4 Uk4Ds05BegFZGVX2suq8MEd8D1AQT5/gkTesJLifz2aRsrFn4rEBH5ixT+NNNKdj 23nNDrBPr9hLhkRIy7eoBahRoYVb1SsnF+6lb1OeEzbwbsdbPDl1c1iSEHhc7ePa wKAnlC7dldI8KuhdPCRmEhzjYnf6HONR27EoA6V1xthRDuHtEn9XfQV42N2cBt8l 0nsNKLX87SAvDy/pFVwVOwb9KVgAkbmA7ICzZ3Z/1cgzK2MlugA+ndnMFvLL5y8U tO5CCT1ixT9iPtLqFGUMMvOHdiA53Kjkul6K53r5GKkFDF562TtESo/jFXcdyKTm SE1BAN5FjbAYo9LXZVRX3yTR+rf3a3Kbs79qz1Bkc48aLibwl+/jtsd04NfFsxnw pwTa1kmlWxv4xOV53z2PYXrK3iwqv425+joWW4+3qlBDv7J2XUsZhKTJgZRSi2Vl I6nzaUipqtIgKUWKuGhH0rE1W/JpA9ryqOwWIROqN7UruDoyqjORsRFkoMilWBDI ZqHg7iSZvvKfsMF9oWlSBNRo2ZZcbjYfzP6dE7fM2ZGcRAvqFa+e3iIuabxIkoCz 6B48MCjFj+PQNHgtXzMQEn65di9Gj8sR6nMCs9/lnJE8F8YAFnmdo8/VIXPQGe0h qYqhvY8gPxavEr+4ElKW =ezz0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
