This does fix the "No per-cpu room for modules" error, but we then go back to the "module ipv6: Relocation overflow vs section 27" error, as seen in http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/linux/axp/2005-q1/0157.html and as early as 2.5.72: http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/6/24/64 There's a patch at http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/1/11/42, but that's already been applied. http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/1/8/99 suggests it might be a gcc issue - I'm using gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20061028 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-19). -- # TRS-80 trs80(a)ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au #/ "Otherwise Bub here will do \ # UCC Wheel Member http://trs80.ucc.asn.au/ #| what squirrels do best | [ "There's nobody getting rich writing ]| -- Collect and hide your | [ software that I know of" -- Bill Gates, 1980 ]\ nuts." -- Acid Reflux #231 / -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
