I had a customer report an error starting the ppmc driver yesterday, and suggested he check the loadrt line for the correct parameter specifying the parallel port address. That was his problem, he used cfg="0x1234" instead of what this driver requires, which is port_addr="0x1234" The message he got was :
Debug file information: insmod: error inserting '/usr/realtime-2.6.32-122-rtai/modules/emc2/hal_ppmc.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module ppmc_load.hal:15: exit value: 1 I know this message is produced by insmod, and so we can't change that. But, "unknown symbol" is a pretty vague description of what is actually wrong. I wonder if loadrt could check the command line parameters against the ones the kernel module is expecting, or if we can come up with a way the kernel module could report a message when it gets a parameter it doesn't recognize?
