[ubuntu-uk] kernel - missing header.
Hi there When I tried to re-build the module for my wi-fi dongle, I got the error that smp_lock.h was missing. I eventually found a workaround on a Swedish site! Simply putting a symlink into an earlier set of headers does the trick - this works for me. The file is in /usr/src/linux-headers-[XYZ], and if the earlier one is not available legacy headers can be found in the repo. Might save someone a bit of head scratching. Should I report this as a bug? If so, how?

Should I report this as a bug? If so, how? smp_lock.h no longer exists in the kernel. See http://lwn.net/Articles/424677/ specifically the line delete mode 100644 include/linux/smp_lock.h Was part of the BKL :) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Kernel_Lock) so the wifi dongle drivers probably aren't truely compatible with current versions of the kernel. -Matt Daubney -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
