Package: nvidia-kernel-dkms
Version: 270.30-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream patch
Hi,
the module does not build on kernels >= 2.6.39-rc1 because the file
linux/smp_lock.h is not there anymore. Since the code does not use
kernel_locked() at all, the include can just be dropped.
The attached patch makes the module build, and I verified it works fine
too :)
The same patch applies also to the nvidia-260.19.44 currently in
unstable.
Thanks,
Antonio Ospite

-------------- next part --------------
Make nvidia-kernel-dkms build on kernels >= 2.6.39-rc1
linux/smp_lock.h is not linux anymore. Since the code does not use
kernel_locked() at all, the include can just be dropped.
