try sys-apps/module-init-tools-3.2.2 (In reply to comment #1) > try sys-apps/module-init-tools-3.2.2 > Same problems as 3.2.1... Please state which version of module-init-tools worked previously, and confirm that downgrading to that version solves your problem. Please also attach dmesg output after you see those errors. he said 3.0-r2 worked for him ;) Correct, downgrading to 3.0-r2 solved the problem. Output of dmesg can be found in the linked forum topic where someone else has a similar problem. I have also experienced issues which were solved by downgrading to 3.0-r2. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-417862-highlight-.html I had the problem too. Someone found a solution that worked for me. see: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3001811.html#3001811 It seems that ALSA changed its module installation directory after the last Kernel update (for me vanilla 2.6.14.2) but before the gcc 3.4 update. This left me with two pairs of modules for ALSA. The old ones in /lib/modules/2.6.14.2/misc/ and the new ones in /lib/modules/2.6.14.2/alsa-driver/ the old module-init-tools-3.0-r2 loaded the new ones but the new >=module-init-tools-3.2.1 tried to load the old ones and failed of course. Simply deleting everything related to ALSA in /lib/modules/2.6.14.2/misc/ solved the problem for me. Excellent clue - I tracked down that I happened to enable ALSA in the kernel, and install the alsa-driver package. Fine with module-init-tools-3.0-r2, but not with version 3.2.1. I now have a working system again, with the latest stable module-init-tools. Thanks. thanks for the update |
