The driver defines the GPL license.
Did you recompile the kernel inbetween?
Try a make clean, before you build the driver. And make sure you have
a valid
kernel tree installed.
I have a valid kernel tree installed using git to pull the latest. I
did a 'make clean' on the kernel before completely rebuilding and
installing it. I then rebooted that kernel, rebuilt ieee80211softmac
and bcm430x, but I still got the module license message.
Any suggestions as to why the MODULE_LICENSE macro is failing?
I was having the same problems that you, and Kugelfang helps me to solve
it. I have copied the ieee80211softmac_priv.h file to
/lib/modules/2.6.15-rc2-git6/include/net/. Adding this little patch to
softmac's Makefile, solve the problem too ( if you make install
the softmac module):
