| melkor | Seasons greetings, I have found an error while building something that depends on the kernel headers when I use the 3.7.1 kernel in the mainline ppa. | 22:56 |
| melkor | I am building a dell touchpad driver and it works fine for 3.6.x but will not compile when using 3.7.x. I'm not sure who to contact about this. It appears to be a regression in the kernel but I'm not sure. | 22:57 |
| mjg59 | melkor: A kernel driver? | 23:06 |
| mjg59 | melkor: Drivers often need to be updated to build against newer versions of the kernel | 23:06 |
| mjg59 | Only the userspace ABI is stable, not the kernelspace one | 23:06 |
| melkor | mjg59: I am not to knowledgable in this area so here is what I found. I am using a mouse driver that I build against the kernel, whenever I update I have to rebuild. | 23:10 |
| melkor | In the 3.7 kernel the function input_mt_slots takes 3 arguments, in the 3.6 kernel the function only takes 2 arguments. | 23:11 |
| melkor | This function is found in the mt.h, I don't know if this is userspace ABI or kernelspace. If it is kernel space I suppose Ill contact the maker of the driver. | 23:13 |
| melkor | sorry, I dropped my x session. If anybody responded I missed it. | 23:59 |
