$ uname -r 2.6.28-13-generic
First of all, I replicated your experiment with floppy.ko (although using kernel 2.6.28-13-generic) and got the same results --- everything *seems* to be working as it should. However, I just used module-assistant to rebuild/install the modules mentioned in my original bug (which had been obliterated on last kernel update): these modules are tp_smapi and the custom hdaps that goes with it. I verify that the new one is there (and so is the old one) $ find /lib/modules -name hdaps.ko -ls 4786795 32 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29100 Jun 30 17:57 /lib/modules/2.6.28-13-generic/kernel/drivers/hwmon/hdaps.ko 5668879 32 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 31528 Jul 16 15:57 /lib/modules/2.6.28-13-generic/kernel/updates/hdaps.ko But even after manually running depmod -ae (and making sure that the file was actually touched after I did it), this is what I get: $ grep hdaps /lib/modules/2.6.28-13-generic/modules.dep kernel/drivers/hwmon/hdaps.ko: kernel/drivers/input/input-polldev.ko Obviously I can't modprobe the new module (it tries to load the old one, which doesn't work); but if I manually insmod it by pathname, it does work. So this is strange -- for some reason depmod (or one of its "precursors") seems to be treating this particular module differently. Unfortunately I don't know anything about how this stuff works and so can't hypothesize about the causes! ** Attachment added: "incorrectly-generated modules.dep" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/29158298/modules.dep -- /etc/depmod.d/ubuntu.conf ignored (updates directory not searched) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/389782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
