The in-tree modules build fine. fglrx needs to be fixed. It is indeed part of fglrx. There is a bug related to it on the unofficial Linux Bugzilla: http://ati.cchtml.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461 . Until AMD/ATI fixes the bug, the rpmfusion RPMs could apply the patch discussed there. |
Created attachment 570273 [details] akmod ati catalyst build log Description of problem: Build of catalyst module via the akmod rpm from rpmfusion fails for latest kernel. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.2.9-2.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: Always with the above kernel and headers, but works on 3.2.9-1.fc16.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum update kernel and headers to 3.2.9-2.fc16.x86_64 2. run: sudo akmods --force --kernels 3.2.9-2.fc16.x86_64 Actual results: Checking kmods exist for 3.2.9-2.fc16.x86_64 [ OK ] Building and installing catalyst-kmod [FAILED] Building rpms failed; see /var/cache/akmods/catalyst/12.1-1-for-3.2.9-2.fc16.x86_64.failed.log for details Expected results: Ideally the above steps should not even have to be taken as the kernel module is built automatically for each new kernel. Running manually as above the result should be "OK". Additional info: I believe the failure has to do with the recent commit to kernel headers yum changelog 03/01/2012 kernel-headers-3.2.9-2.fc16.x86_64 * Fri Mar 2 12:00:00 2012 Dave Jones <davej> - Enable VM debugging in non-debug kernels too. If the CONFIG_DEBUG_VM definition at lines 56-57 is commented out in /usr/src/kernels/3.2.9-1.fc16.x86_64/arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess_64.h then the module build works.
