Public bug reported: Similarly to Bug #1012284 "Samsung Laptop support module refuse to load for Samsung 900X3C" I'm trying to load "samsung_laptop" in to the kernel so that I can access functionality provided under /sys/devices/platform/samsung (like keyboard backlight control).
When doing a modprobe I get "No such device": # modprobe samsung-laptop FATAL: Error inserting samsung_laptop (/lib/modules/3.5.0-27-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/samsung-laptop.ko): No such device I also tried a mainline build, as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds , and got the same result: # modprobe samsung-laptop FATAL: Error inserting samsung_laptop (/lib/modules/3.9.0-999-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/samsung-laptop.ko): No such device # uname -a Linux sammy.lyte 3.9.0-999-generic #201304190456 SMP Fri Apr 19 08:57:39 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I'm not sure if this is a regression from the previous fix or simply slightly different hardware.
