</div>Nope, I had absolutely no idea, that's why I asked. Basically, I share the<br>
same stance as Devin. The vendor really needs to upstream their driver, or<br>
they're going to keep breaking people's systems when they upgrade to newer<br>
kernels. From the dmesg output:<br>
<br>
[ 8.354806] rc_core: exports duplicate symbol ir_raw_handler_unregister (owned by ir_core)<br>
<br>
It looks like their driver would probably work fine with circa 2.6.36 code,<br>
but is broken on .37 and on, as ir_core became rc_core. Your system currently<br>
has two competing eras of kernel code from drivers/media/ trying to run at<br>
the same time.<br>
<br>
So yes, this is the vendor who needs to fix things, either by taking on the<br>
burden of supporting their supplied code properly on more recent kernels, or<br>
by doing the RIGHT thing and getting their driver code merged into the kernel<br>
itself.<br>

then again, if they did it properly first time around, then it wouldn't be in this mess :(<br>
