Hi, Is there any reason why the 1.4.0 packaged OVS would not work with Kernel 3.2.0-36, but does with 3.2.0-34? I had things running fine with 3.2.0-34, and had left my lab for a month before returning to it and doing an 'apt-get upgrade'. The Kernel got upgraded to 3.2.0-36 and upon reboot I now

Hi, When building OVS 1.7.1 on Ubuntu 12.10 (Kernel 3.5.0-19), I got the following error during 'make': openvswitch-1.7.1/datapath/linux/datapath.c:42:24: fatal error: asm/system.h: No such file or directory This got me thinking: is 3.5.0-19 even supported? According to the latest README of OVS
