[raspberrypi-kernel package] kernel version doesn't match /lib/modules #1554

Closed jorenvo closed 8 years ago

jorenvo commented 8 years ago

Not sure if this is the right place to report packaging issues. But the current stable raspberrypi-kernel package for Raspbian Jessie [1] seems to contain a kernel with version 4.4.11+ [2], but the modules for /lib/modules seem to be for 4.4.13+ [3]. This is causing some issues for us [4], eg. lsmod doesn't work anymore, and there is no /dev/input/by-id present.

Looks okay on this end:

Also checked by extracting kernel.img directly from the .deb file.

@XECDesign you're right, not sure what's going on then. Will report back when we figured out the issue. Thanks for the quick response!

jorenvo commented 8 years ago

The reason this was happening is because we build our images with qemu-system-arm and we didn't mount /boot. Therefore the kernel modules got updated, but the images in /boot didn't. So it had nothing to do with the package, sorry for the noise.

Thank you, I've found a solution.

Hello, I've tried to compile the Exar UART driver 21B1411 and get the same error. Is there a solution other than finding 4.4.13+ and installing those headers? If not obvious already, I know a lot about technology, just not this specific area, i.e., Linux installations.

Thank you, Jim Julian
