Hi Glenn,
please find attached the files requested. To assure a defined state I
first extracted the rt2860-source package again, then I took the log in
attached file 508805-without-patch.log.gz . Then after patching the
module source using the patch from Alexander I repeated the same build
command which basically is 'fakeroot make-kpkg modules_image' with some
parameters added and the stdout and stderr redirected to the log file
attached as 508805-with-patch.log.gz .
As you can see in the first log, the unpatched source runs the command
/sbin/depmod -a 2.6.27.10
which a normal user is not allowed to do, whereas _after_ applying
the patch the depmod is no longer run and the build succeeds.
Achim
