Still an issue with linux-image-2.6.32-21-generic as of today. Tried to compile the tp_smapi modules via dkms (package tp-smapi-dkms, compile gave no errors), but trying to insert the modules (thinkpad_ec, tp_smapi, hdaps) leads to the same error as mentioned by the original poster Issuing the parameter "force_io=1" while loading thinkpad_ec makes the module load ok, afterwards the other two load as well. I successfully control the laptops' fan via tpfand which accesses the SMAPI features these modules make accessible to the linux kernel.
-- thinkpad_ec and thus tp_smapi can not be loaded https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/304079 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
