When I tried the latest (last night's) version of compat-wireless-2.6-old on my 2.6.26 Debian laptop, I got the following error messages when I tried to 'modprobe iwl3945": Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: cfg80211: exports duplicate symbol rfkill_force_state (owned by rfkill) Once that happened, there were a series of cascading failures: Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol wiphy_register Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol wiphy_new Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol wiphy_unregister Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol ieee80211_radiotap_iterator_init Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol __ieee80211_get_channel Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol ieee80211_radiotap_iterator_next Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol ieee80211_channel_to_frequency Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol ieee80211_frequency_to_channel Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: mac80211: Unknown symbol wiphy_free Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_free_hw Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_alloc_hw Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_notify_mac Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_register_hw Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_rate_control_unregister Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol __ieee80211_get_radio_led_name Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_wake_queue Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol __ieee80211_get_tx_led_name Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol __ieee80211_get_rx_led_name Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_wake_queues Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_rate_control_register Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol sta_info_get Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_stop_queue Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_stop_queues Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol __ieee80211_get_assoc_led_name Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_scan_completed Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_channel_to_frequency Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_unregister_hw Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_hdrlen Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_beacon_get Oct 7 02:20:14 walkies kernel: iwl3945: Unknown symbol ieee80211_rx_irqsafe It seems this isn't a new problem, and was pointed out nearly two months ago: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/19530/ I have CONFIG_RFKILL=m in my .config, and the module is loaded. This potential conflict is not mentioned in the README. Should I alter my kernel .config to avoid the collision, unload rfkill, or is there a magic incantation in compat-wireless to avoid the problem?
