Hi Richard,

Out of tree module is always painful. Please contact the package maintainer to check which kernel should work with it and compile against it.

Hi,

I'm trying (unsuccessfully) to install the quota2 pkg for iptables on a PCEngines APU board since quota isn't thread safe and doesn't work accurately on multicore systems.

I've tried installing linux-source and linux-source-3.14.12-voyage, but no luck. Still won't build the module. Currently running Voyage 0.9.5 (link from PCEngines), but I see there's a later release... will that help?

Also, installing xtables-addons-dkms has a lot of dependencies for a tiny kernel module, making the footprint huge (extra 150MB+). Is there a way around this? Does anyone have a pre-built package module?

Many thanks in advance,
Richard.
