Changed my system due to power management and PCMCIA hotplug issues to the mailnline kernel 2.6.36 and tried to compile the module from the head source at http://omnibook.sourceforge.net - it compiles successfully, but gives the same kind of error when attempting to load it.
Some comments on the net say that the problem started with kernel 2.6.33 or 2.6.34 and that it could be related to the GCC version, 4.4 or 4.5. I tried both GCC versions (4.4.5 as the sub version of 4.4) and none succeeded. Also tried GCC 4.3, but this version does not compile the current source code because of other errors. Still could try to downgrade 4.4 to an older sub revision, maybe this works - I'll try it if I have the time. At least we can see that it is not a pure maverick kernel problem. -- maverick: omnibook kernel module is defective, causes crash and fails to load - laptop media keys don't work (e.g. on XE3) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/660989 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
