Title:
Kernel build system installs modules in the wrong place
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Oneiric kernels seem to have an issue with the version numbering on
the kernel build system not being set correctly:
$ uname -a
Linux cheetah 3.0.0-14-generic #23-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 21 20:28:43 UTC 2011
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ head /lib/modules/3.0.0-14-generic/build/Makefile
VERSION = 3
PATCHLEVEL = 0
SUBLEVEL = 9
EXTRAVERSION =
NAME = Sneaky Weasel
What this means is that if you use Module-Assistant to build a driver
(e.g. vloopback) or install WebcamStudio (http://www.ws4gl.org/) then
the module will be installed in the wrong place -- specifically, the
kernel's build system will install the modules in /lib/modules/3.0.9,
when they should be installed in /lib/modules/3.0.0-14-generic.
This happens with the r8168 (Realtek Ethernet) driver, WebcamStudio,
and several other modules.
