Hello, After compiling the compat-drivers (thanks to this mailing list support) I was unable to load the generated kernel module. It failed with a succinct message: *** ERROR: could not insert 'alx': Exec format error *** But dmesg showed more: *** compat: exports duplicate symbol i2c_bit_algo (owned by i2c_algo_bit) *** After restartig the system, gnome-shell crashed because Xorg loaded the VESA driver. I did not join the points until I found a related bug report at Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=703142#51 And then was "pointed" to ask you :-) http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=703142#71 True is that I was able to compile and load "compat-drivers" with no problems at all from another system with no Intel card on it, so here I am. Is is a known problem? Is there a workaround for Intel VGA-based systems?
