Bug#392235: thinkpad: Kernel module doesn't compile with 2.6.18 (the kernel for etch)

[Thomas Viehmann]

Package: thinkpad
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package useless

Hi,

the thinkpad-source (even for version 6.0 as in the pkg-tpctl svn.d.o
repository) fails to compile into a kernel module with 2.6.18, destined
to be the etch Linux kernel.
This makes this package useless for practical purposes.

People fixing this should also update the package description to mention
that its only supported on [567]*, A[23]*, T2*, R[34]*, X20 series, but
not the more recent ones (e.g. X40, R50).

I will file a seperate bug for tpctl and tag that as blocked by this but.

Kind regards

T.
