It is attempting to call a symbol in a loadable module from a builtin driver. CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=m CONFIG_VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL=m If I use change CONFIG_VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL to y, CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO also changes to y, so the relevant functions are all builtin, and there is no build problem. I guess that this line in drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/Kconfig: select ACPI_VIDEO if ACPI && X86 && BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE && VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL && INPUT sets ACPI_VIDEO=m since VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL=m, even though all of the other symbols are =y. xconfig tells me: Selects: FW_LOADER [=y] && DRM_KMS_HELPER [=y] && DRM_TTM [=y] && FB_CFB_FILLRECT [=y] && FB_CFB_COPYAREA [=y] && FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT [=y] && FB [=y] && FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE [=y] && FB_BACKLIGHT [=y] && ACPI_VIDEO [=m] && ACPI_WMI [=y] && MXM_WMI [=y] && POWER_SUPPLY [=y] -- ~Randy _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
