Hi Luis I am porting the compat-wireless-2.6.32-3 to my powerpc platform with 2.6.25 kernel. After disable the LED marco in config.mk i have compile it sucess. but when i load it , it show below error messages, anyone can help on this? the kernel modules manually load order is below: am i right ? 1. rfkill_backport 2. cfg_802.11 3. mac80211 4. ath 5. ath9k #insmod rfkill_backport.ko rfkill_backport: Unknown symbol dev_set_name insmod: cannot insert 'rfkill_backport.ko': unknown symbol in module (-1): No such file or directory i found that the compat-2.6.26 have the dev_set_name function, but compat-2.6.25 don't have this. In new kernel(2.6.29) it's is device/base/core.c, then i try to copy the function into my 2.6.25 kernel. but it loss the 'kobject_set_name_vargs', here is the compile information. $drivers/base/core.c: In function 'dev_set_name': $drivers/base/core.c:880: error: implicit declaration of function 'kobject_set_name_vargs' Regards Yanfei > -----Original Message----- > From: Luis R.
