Re: [Linux Wireless] Update of "en/users/Download" by ReinetteChatre

Luis,

I used stable version 2.6.30.
Anyway I downloaded bleeding edge version and ran script check_depmod.
But it created new configuration in /etc/depmod.d directory instead of creating global configuration /etc/depmod.conf what I did. It doesn't work in that way.

I can read in manual pages of depmod.conf that depmod.d directory serves for configuration on per-module basis, so I think you can change the order of proceding directories for particular module only there.
But I don't know how to name that file or if my thought is right at all.

Roman

+ We use the updates/ directory so your distribution's drivers are left intact. By default depmod will search this directory first, but if you find that it does not then check that your depmod.conf file lists the search order correctly with ''updates'' appearing first (before ''built-in'').
Hm, so compat-wireless now actually checks this for you and if its not
there it adds it for you. Was there an issue with a particular user on
this?
Yes, a madriva user ran into this problem. See
http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2061#c6

Roman, I added a little check for this, specifically since another
user reported the same issue. Did you use bleeding edge
compat-wireless?

The script is in:

scripts/check_depmod

We run this at make install time.

Can you run that manually?

  Luis
