[SOLVED] Catalyst-hook won't build kernel module

I HAVE SOLVED THE PROBLEM. I WAS MISSING /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-3.11-ARCH/version !
Hello, I got a problem with my Arch Linux install. Today I got a new kernel update (Linux-3.11.1-2-ARCH) and catalyst-hook attemptet to rebuild the fglrx kernel module, but failed.
This is my /var/log/catalyst-install.log:

[SOLVED] nVidia 87.76 Drivers installer fails to build kernel module

Hey,
I have a nVidia GeForce2 Integrated graphics card on my Asus A7N266 motherboard. According to the nVidia site, http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_32667.html, the most recent driver that supports this is the 96.xx series. Yet as shown here, http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=87332, many people have found that the 96.xx series drivers cause graphical corruption when using a GeForce2 IGP.
Before coming to Arch, I had used Xubuntu 7.04 and managed to compile the last known working drivers, version 87.76, following the instructions here: http://kmandla.wordpress.com/2007/03/25 … 20-12-386/
That all went well but now I'm using Arch. I tried using the nvidia-96.xx driver in the repos just for testing sake but I still got the same graphical corruption.
Thus I have been trying to install the 87.76 drivers on Arch, but it always fails at the kernel module building stage. I had first applied this patch here, http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthr … ost1086669, before compling as the plain driver wont compile against recent kernels.
Here is the output from the installer:

Any ideas as to how I can get the kernel module to build?

The name of the directory you placed the driver in contains spaces. That is why you get the no rule to make target GLX error.
It would be better not to circumvent pacman. I am using the following PKGBUILDs for the 8776 driver:

Proper method for building kernel modules? [solved]

I am attempting to build a custom kernel module for a PCI express interface to an FPGA. However, I seem to be running into some issues with getting the standard kernel module makefile to work correctly. Here is my makefile:
# object files to build
obj-m += nnic.o
nic-objs += nnic_driver.o
all:
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(pwd) modules
clean:
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(pwd) clean
However, the first time I ran 'make', I got this output:
make -C /lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build M= modules
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build'
Makefile:608: Cannot use CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR: -fstack-protector not supported by compiler
scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig
*** Error during update of the configuration.
/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build/scripts/kconfig/Makefile:36: recipe for target 'silentoldconfig' failed

make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build'
Makefile:7: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2
After poking around online, I decided to try running make as root. I got the following output:
make -C /lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build M= modules
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build'
scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig

make[2]: *** No rule to make target '/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build/arch/x86/syscalls/Makefile'. Stop.

make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build'
Makefile:7: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2
Now, when runing 'make' as a normal user, I get:
make -C /lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build M= modules
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build'
Makefile:608: Cannot use CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_REGULAR: -fstack-protector not supported by compiler

make[2]: *** No rule to make target '/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build/arch/x86/syscalls/Makefile'. Stop.

make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-1-ARCH/build'
Makefile:7: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2
I have the linux-headers package installed. I do not need to build the whole kernel, only this small module. What am I missing here? What is the correct procedure for this?

Sigh, found the problem. Should be $(PWD) and not $(pwd) in my makefile.

[Solved] Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module

Hi all,
I've just made the jump to arch and have a fresh install. I'm having trouble getting the nvidia drivers to work. I am currently using the nouveau drivers without issue.
The method I am using - after much trial - is:
- uninstall nouveau and mesa lib
- install nvidia package
- remove nouveau module entry in mkinitcpio.conf
- run `mkinitcpio -p linux`
- edit .conf in xorg.conf.d with minimal required settings. Currently:
Section "Device"
Identifier "device0"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
I have installed the linux-headers package and tried reinstalling nvidia again

The only entry I found in `dmesg | grep nvidia` related to nvidia-drm, and seemed to say it was loaded successfully. I didn't save the exact entry and i've reinstalled nouveau now so that I could post this.
Any help much appriciated. I've been at this for a while. Learning a lot in the process!

Success! Several days of trying various things and I finally give in and make a post to this forum. One more attempt - which was only really so that I could add modprobe info to this post - and it works.
I had at some stage installed the driver xf86-video-nv, and this may have been causing the clash. I un-installed it, and followed the procedure above to reinstall nvidia.
I think the main hang up I'd had is that I had not been rebuilding my kernel image with mkinitcpio after installing nvidia during my previous attempts.
I hope some info in here helps some other stuck archer.
Edit: Thanks graysky. I had found the right nvidia driver using the arch wiki and followed this advice to remove the nouveau hook. Much appriciated.

[cisco VPN] Can't build kernel module with 2.6.9-ARCH

I need to setup a vpn tunnel to my university in order to gain acces to their resources and be able to surf when I am on the campus. With 2.6.8.1 I used the Cisco VPN client 4.0.5 k9. After my upgrade to 2.6.9 I had to rebuild the module, but now it fails to build. Anyone knows how to solve this? Or does anyone know another vpn client that is compatible with Cisco. This piece of software is essential to me. Please help. Here is the output:

Automatically build kernel module after kernel update

Hello. Everytime kernel is updated, my wifi drivers don't work. I need to use this to get my adapter working: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/8192cu-dkms/ .
After kernel update, I have to manually reinstall the package, so the kernel module gets rebuilt. Is there any way to make it automatic?

I noticed it, but your script doesn't run at all when I type `mkinitcpio -p linux`. And wifi still works after reboot. Same for graphics driver, it has a hook at shutdown, that rebuilds its module after kernel update, it haven't run too and graphics driver works. It's like 'mkinitcpio -p linux' does nothing to the system.

Trouble building kernel module for sensor support

Hi, I'm new here but have been using Arch for a while. Recently, I decided to install Arch on an old laptop (Toshiba A70) and have managed to work out most of the kinks to where it runs nicely. Unfortunately, ACPI support is spotty and the /sys/class/thermal directory gives me only cooling_device0. I installed the lm-sensors package and ran sensors-detect, which yielded no results. Although the laptop runs smoothly otherwise, I would like to know the CPU's temp so that I would be able to set up a fan control scheme and CPU scaling (so far it's stuck at the lowest frequency, and that's kind of a big deal for me since the laptop runs on an archaic mobile P4 chip).
Sorry for the story but I felt some context was necessary. I did manage to find a kernel module that would connect those sensors to ACPI for me (http://sourceforge.net/projects/omnibook/), however I'm having trouble building it on the latest kernel. Here is the output from running make:

[SOLVED] [kernel26zen-git] Unable to build kernel

Hi!
I am unable to sucessfully build the kernel26zen-git package.
I am using the stable version, master branch.

I already tried the "make mrproper", building it without any modifications to "config" and googleing for the problem.
Anyone got a clue?
EDIT: Okay, I was searching with the wrong keywords. I searched for
include/linux/tracepoint.h:80:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'synchronize_sched'
and found this thread.
Going to try this out.
EDIT 2: What can I say? It worked.
EDIT 3: Another Thread with the solution
PS: What about this "RCU"? What does it do and why does the "classic RCU" not work?

Iv'e got lib32-jack already installed. And by reading the comments of the AUR link to the package ( lib32-portaudio ) they supposedly fixed the PKGBUILD too.

[SOLVED]How can I disable ehci_hcd kernel module?

How can I disable ehci_hcd kernel module loading?
I have up to date archlinux.
I tried add 'modprobe -r ehci_hcd' to '/etc/rc.local' but this broke net-profiles - ppp connection at bootup(I have USB modem (which of course work with uhci_hcd module) connected).
I also tried with '/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf' and 'blacklist ehci_hcd' but ehci_hcd still loading at bootup.

Thanks, but:

2) this not work also:
MOD_AUTOLOAD="no"
#MOD_BLACKLIST=() #deprecated
MODULES=(long_long_list_of_modules_without_ehci_hcd)
I found solution:
1) comments 2 lines in /etc/modprobe.d/usb-load-ehci-first.conf
#install ohci_hcd /sbin/modprobe ehci_hcd ; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ohci_hcd $CMDLINE_OPTS
#install uhci_hcd /sbin/modprobe ehci_hcd ; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install uhci_hcd $CMDLINE_OPTS
2) and blacklist module ehci_hcd in /etc/rc.conf.

Building kernel module, works only fine with default kernel26-headers

I am trying to build the phc-k8 package from the AUR.
I had to adapt the PKGBUILD a bit. The problem is it seems to want to have certain headers (a lot of headers, actually) in asm/ that are present in asm-generic/ in the kernel26-headers package and are in the same location in my own kernel package (which doesn't have the headers split out).
This is how the asm* directories look:

Apart from the asm-x86 dir the contents are identical (I checked the file listing of both asm-generic dirs and diff shows no difference between them). If I build the package with the default 2.6.32-ARCH kernel specified, it works. It finds all the headers and it compiles beautifully. However, when I build it with my own kernel (2.6.31.12-server), it spits out a sh*tload of errors (amongst which, in the beginning, all those asm files it can't find):

Any clues?

It's a bash check ([), it tells the script to add a conditional makedepends (if the kernel has that name, add that package as a dependency to build). It's optional, so it doesn't do any harm.
Thanks for looking though .

ATI drivers won't compile kernel modules, what other options?

Just building my first Arch build on my desktop, I've got XFCE working, and ALSA (Finally after some troubleshooting and tweaking), but now I'm up to video drivers.
I've just found out the hard way that FGLRX will not compile, I'm assuming because ATI drivers do not support Kernel 3.1.1. So I got rid of FGLRX and the ATI configuration tools. But now I have a dual head display, running on ati-dri (which I assume is just your run of the mill basic driver for ATI cards) and I'm a bit lost on what to look into in terms of using the 3D power of my ATI 4870, and also to set up my dual head displays, on other distros I used to just use the ATI tool and it wrote an xorg file for me, but now I've just got a cloned display.
Halp?

Thank you tomk, sorry to have wasted a thread on something that I could of found in the wiki, I'll keep it in mind next time.
Going with the easiest and fastest option seeing as all options will give the same end result, that being using the unofficial catalyst repo. From what I understand the Arch wikis are frequently updated, so that method should work with the 3.1.1 kernel, correct?

VBox Guest Additions Kernel Modules

Hey, semi-literate Linux user/Arch n00b here. I apologize in advance as I realize that this issue has been addressed in this forum previously, but after several hours of hunting, I have yet to find a proper solution. I am trying to run Arch64 as a guest in VirtualBox (host is Ubuntu 10.10, x86-64 if it matters). I have the system up and running, but I can't seem to get the Guest Additions going, as the system won't build the kernel modules. This is the terminal output while running the installer:
Uncompressing VirtualBox 3.2.6 Guest Additions for Linux........
VirtualBox Guest Additions installer
Removing installed version 3.2.6 of VirtualBox Guest Additions...
:: Building the VirtualBox Guest Additions kernel modules [FAIL]
Your system does not seem to be set up to build kernel modules.
Look at /var/log/vboxadd-install.log to find out what went wrong. Once you have corrected it, you can
run
/etc/init.d/vboxadd setup
to build them.
:: Doing non-kernel setup of the Guest Additions [DONE]
:: Installing the Window System drivers [BUSY]
:: Installing X.Org Server 1.8 modules [DONE]
:: Setting up the Window System to use the Guest Additions [DONE]
You may need to restart the hal service and the Window System (or just restart
the guest system) to enable the Guest Additions.
:: Installing graphics libraries and desktop services components [DONE]
And this is the output of the log file:
Makefile:23: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.. Stop.
Creating user for the Guest Additions.
Creating udev rule for the Guest Additions kernel module.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Guest additions for VirtualBox 4.0.4 are broken, in several ways. Try a newer build for them:

It's working OK for me, while with the regular 4.0.4 additions I had numerous crashes on my XP guest.

[SOLVED] VMWare Player won't install

Hello,
I have a problem installing VMWare player on arch. (disclaimer: I have RTFM *and* searched and googled hehe)
I'm trying to install VMware-Player-2.5.1-126130.x86_64.bundle on the following machine:
Linux 2.6.29-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT x86_64 AMD Phenom(tm) 9850 Quad-Core Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
I was following the guide here: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installing_VMware
and somewhat here: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=1126993
My problem is though when i run /usr/bin/vmplayer it complains that
Unable to build kernel module
See log file /tmp/vmware-root/setup-12218.log for details
and wont do anything else. I've basicly followed the guide I listed above in its steps so I'm a little lost now.
Any advice would be greatly appriciated as its for a university assigment im rapidly running out of time on heheh.
Regards,
Mike.

Thanks for your help so far, awesome!
I got it to work but a little differently since it still wouldnt patch for me
Anyhow Il post my solution here since i know I always hate visiting a
SOLVED thread only to find noone said HOW
So I move my file from binary to binary old
(mv /usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary /usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary.old)
then i go to my source directory
(cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source)
i untar everything in sight (:P)
[root@TOMATO source]# ls
vmblock-only vmci.tar vmnet-only vmppuser.tar
vmblock.tar vmmon-only vmnet.tar vmware-workstation-2.6.29-v2.patch
vmci-only vmmon.tar vmppuser-only vsock.tar
then I used the scripts from here http://communities.vmware.com//thread/203231
Finally I run step 6). vmware-modconfig --console --install-all
And done!:D

I don't know why, and I do not know if I care.

Instead, I switched to catalyst-hook (I used catalyst) and upgraded to kernel 3.11.4, the latest version of xorg (there was a new one), gnome 3.10 and the module compiled perfectly, so now everything works on my system
You right, but you know... I have a lot projects in queue and not have time to search and test evertying
But, now... catalyst has installed successfully, but, I think isn't working 100%, because, when I click (for example), in a Google Chrome tab, and move to left/right, all tabs disappear or are blurry.
Anyway, thanks.

[Solved] Catalyst fails to load kernel module

I have just been through the Catalyst install guide, I installed from the Vi0L0 repos rather than building myself.
Everything appeared to go fine, however fglrx fails to load when I reboot. The xorg log contains;
fglrx(0): atiddxDriScreenInit failed. Probably kernel module missing or incompatible
fglrx(0): **********************************************************
fglrx(0): * DRI initialization failed
fglrx(0): * kernel module (fglrx.ko) may be missing or incompatible
fglrx(0): * 2D and 3D acceleration disabled
fglrx(0): **********************************************************
Is this recoverable? Or does this mean that the current Vi0L0 module has not been built for my kernel (3.11.5-1-ARCH)?

This issue has now been resolved after the update to xorg 1.14
lsmod | grep fglrx
shows fglrx is not loaded, and:
modprobe fglrx
returns with;
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'fglrx': Exec format error
Does that indicate a 32/64 bit issue?
