Does not build on 2.6.31, linux-core/drm_memory.c:286: error: ‘struct agp_memory’ has no member named ‘memory’

[Niall Creech]

Binary package hint: nouveau-kernel-source

struct agp_memory now uses 'pages' not 'memory' in 2.6.31. need to update the following files in nouveau to reflect this change

linux-core/drm_agpsupport.c
linux-core/drm_memory.c
linux-core/drm_vm.c

There'll be a new nouveau stack coming to Karmic soon; this will include
a newer nouveau-kernel-source package that will build against our
kernels.

[Jean-Louis Dupond (dupondje)]

As the new 2.6.31 kernel is default now, its quite annoying it doesn't work :)

[Niall Creech (sevenmachines-deactivatedaccount)]

good to know the new stuff is on the way. i've got a patch to get it working in a vague sense but there are a lot of symbol mismatches stopping drm unsurprisingly

This bug was fixed in the package nouveau-kernel-source - 0.0.14+git20090715-0ubuntu1

---------------
nouveau-kernel-source (0.0.14+git20090715-0ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  * New upstream snapshot. Now built from upstream's linux-2.6 branch,
    which is the new canonical location. Now builds against 2.6.31 kernels
    (LP: #393885).
  * debian/install:
    + Update for new snapshot date
    + Add new files for use-annotated-version.patch
    + Use new layout, include upstream's Makefile for out-of-tree builds.
  * debian/dkms.conf:
    + Update for new snapshot date
    + Use new layout
  * debian/rules:
    + Add annotated_version in get-orig-source targets
    + Add git config to fetch from Linus' tree, needed for "git describe"
    + Add GIT_OPTIONS parameter to get-orig-source target. Pass in
      "--reference /path/to/local/kernel/repository" to make get-orig-source
      use much less bandwidth and time.
    + Update get-orig-source for new location. Only copy interesting files
      (include/drm, drivers/gpu/drm) from the kernel tree.
  * debian/use-annotated-version.patch:
    + Use the annotated_version file we generate in get-orig-source to set
      the version for the drm modules. Upstream can love us again!
  * debian/linus-git-config-fragment:
    + git config fragment to allow us to pull tags from Linus' tree
  * debian/control:
    + Use lp: URL for Vcs-Bzr field
  * debian/watch:
    + Add comment-only watch file to reduce lintian noise
