Package: linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64
Version: 3.2.39-2
I'm using a reasonably vanilla "testing" distribution.
The i915 module would not load, either at boot or using "modprobe -a
i915". The error message on the command line is as follows.
FATAL: Error inserting i915 (....): Invalid argument
In dmesg it is as follows.
[ 3.227711] i915: disagrees about version of symbol i2c_bit_algo
[ 3.227766] i915: Unknown symbol i2c_bit_algo (err -22)
Consequently, the xorg intel driver (for intel i3 2100, with HD 2000
graphics) wasn't loaded, and X11 fell back to VESA. I reverted to an
earlier kernel/modules set and things work fine. Reverting was somewhat
of a chore as when the new kernel/modules set was installed it
completely replaced the earlier one. I would rather that it had not.
Best wishes,
Bob
