Package: fglrx-kernel-src Version: 8.28.8-0.1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
The package uses gcc to build the module kernel. The latest version of gcc in testing is 4.1, but the package needs that gcc be a link to gcc-4.0. Otherwise the module builds sucessfully, but it is incompatible with the prebuilts Debian kernels (at least with 2.6.16-2, the latest version in testing) and shows this in log file: [...] [drm] failed to load kernel module "fglrx" (II) fglrx(0): [drm] drmOpen failed (EE) fglrx(0): DRIScreenInit failed! (WW) fglrx(0): *********************************************** (WW) fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed! * (WW) fglrx(0): * (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad) * (WW) fglrx(0): * 2D acceleraton available (MMIO) * (WW) fglrx(0): * no 3D acceleration available * (WW) fglrx(0): ********************************************* * (II) fglrx(0): FBADPhys: 0xe8000000 FBMappedSize: 0x08000000 (II) fglrx(0): FBMM initialized for area (0,0)-(1024,8191) (II) fglrx(0): FBMM auto alloc for area (0,0)-(1024,768) (front color buffer - assumption) (==) fglrx(0): Backing store disabled [...] Could the package verify that? Thanks. P.S.: For users that would can read this: If you know what you are doing, do this: #rm /usr/bin/gcc #ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 gcc Now is time to build the module like you can read in README file. Undo the above: #rm /usr/bin/gcc #ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-4.1 gcc -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable'), (20, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-2-686-smp Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) (ignored: LC_ALL set to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Versions of packages fglrx-kernel-src depends on: ii bzip2 1.0.3-6 high-quality block-sorting file co ii debhelper 5.0.37.3 helper programs for debian/rules ii make 3.81-2 The GNU version of the "make" util Versions of packages fglrx-kernel-src recommends: ii kernel-package 10.054 A utility for building Linux kerne ii module-assistant 0.10.6 tool to make module package creati -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
