[Pkg-tpctl-devel] Bug#359812: thinkpad-source: thinkpad module fails to load on 2.6.16

[Chip Salzenberg]

Package: thinkpad-source
Version: 5.9-2
Severity: important

The 2.6.16 kernel seems unhappy with the thinkpad module's implementation of
module options.  When I tried to load the module, I got this error in the
kernel log:

   kernel: thinkpad: falsely claims to have parameter enable_thinkpadpm

In a perhaps unrelated matter, module-assistant regards the 2.6.16-1-686
header tree to be "unconfigured".  Nevertheless the module built and
(almost) installed, so I assume this is not relevant to this problem.
