I tried re-compiling the kernel (quite a slow process here on the netbook ;)) and these two warnings seemed relevant:
Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST 2292 modules WARNING: drivers/video/vesafb.o(.exit.text+0x57): Section mismatch in reference from the function vesafb_remove() to the (unknown reference) .init.data:(unknown) The function __exit vesafb_remove() references a (unknown reference) __initdata (unknown). This is often seen when error handling in the exit function uses functionality in the init path. The fix is often to remove the __initdata annotation of (unknown) so it may be used outside an init section. WARNING: drivers/video/vesafb.o(.exit.text+0x62): Section mismatch in reference from the function vesafb_remove() to the variable .init.data:vesafb_fix The function __exit vesafb_remove() references a variable __initdata vesafb_fix. This is often seen when error handling in the exit function uses functionality in the init path. The fix is often to remove the __initdata annotation of vesafb_fix so it may be used outside an init section. Perhaps my issue should be refiled as a different bug since the hardware is not the i915? -- Slow performance and tiling issues on i915 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
