That is wierd. I just did a diff between your link and the tar.gz file I download a couple of days ago from the first post in this thread. There is no difference.
I had a quick look at the 2.6.27.patch file. I noticed that you are using
to patch the files. This means that it will ignore all whitespace problems. To try it out, I replaced that with
and sure enough the patch failed exactly as described in an
earlier post #288 of yours!
I think you uploaded the old patch files
If that is true, then I am saved. I will try the solution you provided in post #288 and hopefully the module will load successfully
EDIT: Unfortunately, the above didn't work.
Could this be because I have linux-headers from 2.6.27 instead of 2.6.28
EDIT 2: I tried the same after installing linux-headers 2.6.28. It still gives the same error. I guess I will stay with 2.6.27. Thank you for all your help and the patches,- it works in 2.6.27 absolutely fine
I forgot to mention earlier: this is on a gentoo system. Maybe the ubuntu kernels have some additional patches which help you somewhere. So, I guess I shouldn't waste your time any more. :/
