** Description changed: - Actually it looks like oss4-dkms could never, and has never, installed - successfully in natty. + IMPACT: - Steps to reproduce the bug: - sudo apt-get install oss4-dkms + oss4-dkms 4.2-build2003-1ubuntu1 does not install successfully in Ubuntu 11.04. It appears it has never been able to with the natty kernel, because of this change to fs.h: + http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.36.y.git;a=commitdiff;h=b19dd42faf413b4705d4adb38521e82d73fa4249 - Optionally, to verify you're getting the same build failure: - sudo make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build SUBDIRS=/var/lib/dkms/oss4/4.2-build2003/build/core modules + FIX: + + Used the patch from upstream: + http://opensound.hg.sourceforge.net/hgweb/opensound/opensound/rev/c63e54ba4988 + which is already in oneiric (via v4.2-build2004). + The fix simply omits structure fields that no longer exist in kernel 2.6.36 and later. + + TEST CASE: + + 1. sudo apt-get install oss4-dkms + 2. Terminal output shows an error: + Error!
