[Dri-users] 2.6.11 Savage Snapshot Problem

[Nathan O. <nat...@gm...>]

I've had a bit of self-induced trouble lately with my computer, and in
trying to reconstruct what I've smashed, I downloaded the new 2.6.11
kernel and the latest (AFAIK) Savage snapshot from Feb 25. According
to the install.sh script, the compilation with gcc-3.3.4 (same as the
kernel) goes fine, but inserting the module fails with this error from
dri.log:

FATAL: Error inserting savage
(/lib/modules/2.6.11/kernel/drivers/char/drm/savage.ko): Unknown
symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

The last few lines of dmesg read:

kobject_register failed for drm (-17)
 [<c01f6cc7>] kobject_register+0x57/0x60
 [<c012ae60>] mod_sysfs_setup+0x50/0xb0

For a short while, I had gcc-3.4 installed, which I'm told has some
visibility somethingorother. I'm not using any binaries that were
compiled with that version of gcc. Further, with 2.6.11, X simply wont
start. It blanks the screen.

I'm downloading Linux 2.6.9 right now because it's the last kernel
that worked well for me. We'll see if that changes anything.

If it matters, DRM support *has* been compiled in to the kernel (but
not as a module).
