A given kernel is going to look for its modules down only one path. We have been using these build-specific paths in the git build system for some time, they eliminate the problem that incorrect modules get loaded into kernel space when you change the main kernel binary. I dunno what our packaging side is doing about modules because it's not discussed anywhere that I read. Anyway it's good news mwester is using the same system, it just means that you only actually need the dir that matches the build stamp of the monolithic kernel you are using; any other dirs left lying around don't make any trouble except waste space if you will never revert to the kernel that matches them. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkjt7DcACgkQOjLpvpq7dMqymwCfcs6sGhJSWnb6tydDS/SRfJp1 BVwAn2GDr16d9CZlfkKSkxbGKAbLRKlQ =TLS0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
