Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-20-generic
Here is what goes wrong.
I have linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-20-generic from hardy-proposed installed.
sudo modprobe -v rt73usb
insmod
/lib/modules/2.6.24-20-generic/updates/compat-wireless-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2x00lib.ko
WARNING: Error inserting rt2x00lib
(/lib/modules/2.6.24-20-generic/updates/compat-wireless-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2x00lib.ko):
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
dmesg says:
[87359.495054] rt2x00lib: Unknown symbol rfkill_force_state
dlocate rfkill.ko
linux-image-2.6.24-20-generic:
/lib/modules/2.6.24-20-generic/kernel/net/rfkill/rfkill.ko
dlocate rt2x00lib.ko
linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-20-generic:
/lib/modules/2.6.24-20-generic/updates/compat-wireless-2.6/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2x00lib.ko
linux-image-2.6.24-20-generic:
/lib/modules/2.6.24-20-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2x00lib.ko
It appears that linux-backport-modules should ship a version of rfkill that
matches rt2x00lib.
Meanwhile I'll uninstall linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-20-generic to see how
the non-backported wifi driver fares.
