Comment 7 for bug 1027524

ok, after installing the tests and running it manually i saw no failures here (except for the RODATA fail above that is bogus):

======================================================================

 (exit code 0) ok

and here is a snippet of the test:

def test_072_strict_devmem(self):
        '''/dev/mem unreadable for kernel memory'''

        os.chdir('mem')
        target = None
        if self.kernel_is_ubuntu:
            # There isn't a sane way to install the headers via the QRT fields,
            # since there is no meta package for just "linux-headers".
            self.assertShellExitEquals(0, ["apt-get","-y","install",
                                           "linux-headers-%s" %
                                            (self.kernel_version)])

i wonder, do you have the correct headers installed?

You need these:

ii linux-headers-3.4.0-204 3.4.0-204.9 Header files related to Linux kernel version 3.4.0
ii linux-headers-3.4.0-204-omap4 3.4.0-204.9 Linux kernel headers for version 3.4.0 on TI OMAP4-based systems

try it manually.
