The patch itself works fine for me, BUT it doesn't update the version.h available in /lib/modules/2.6.20-ck1/source/include/linux to include the -ck1 in the reported kernel version when trying to build an fglrx driver with the latest ati driver builder.
Which leaves this error message in /usr/share/fglrx/flgrx-install.log: [EMAIL PROTECTED] fglrx]# cat fglrx-install.log [Message] Kernel Module : Trying to install a precompiled kernel module. [Message] Kernel Module : Precompiled kernel module version mismatched. [Message] Kernel Module : Found kernel module build environment, generating kernel module now. ATI module generator V 2.0 ========================== initializing... Error: kernel includes at /lib/modules/2.6.20-ck1/build/include do not match current kernel. they are versioned as "" instead of "2.6.20-ck1". you might need to adjust your symlinks: - /usr/include - /usr/src/linux [Error] Kernel Module : Failed to compile kernel module - please consult readme. ========================== Unforch, the installer does not leave a readme behind that I've been able to find, nor does it report the error on-screen. The above files are not simlinks here on this FC6 install. And of course /usr/src/linux does not exist allthough I could set it up for the duration of a rebuild/reinstall cycle of my script. Can we have a patch to address this? Or should I just hardcode it since it will never be linked to any other later kernel? I tried that in the src tree's include/linux/version.h, but it was refreshed back to the original regex code by the make, so that's not where to do it obviously. I've also made the simlink in /usr/src, but since a kernel make re-writes version.h, that didn't help.
