Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: lirc
Dkms does not install the lirc_imon.ko from lirc_modules_source when the
kernel gets upgraded (in current lucid). The dkms output reads:
lirc_imon.ko:
Running module version sanity check.
Error! Module version 0.6 for lirc_imon.ko
is not newer than what is already found in kernel 2.6.32-21-generic (0.6).
You may override by specifying --force.
Fact is that the lirc_imon.ko provided by the default kernel does not
work with the following imon controller:
15c2:ffdc SoundGraph Inc. iMON PAD Remote Controller
Manually copying the module built by DKMS solves the problem
sudo cp
/var/lib/dkms/lirc/kernel-2.6.32-21-generic-i686/module/lirc_imon.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-21-generic/updates/dkms/
It would be nice if dkms could copy this file regardless of the version
available in the kernel (using the -f option?)
