If I ignore the error when installing nvidia and reboot I instead get the error when modprobing nouveau.
$ modprobe --set-version=3.8.0-5-generic --ignore-install --quiet --show-depends nouveau modprobe: ../tools/modprobe.c:550: print_action: Assertion `kmod_module_get_initstate(m) == KMOD_MODULE_BUILTIN' failed. Aborted (core dumped) $ modprobe --set-version=3.8.0-5-generic --ignore-install --quiet --show-depends nvidia insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia_304_updates.ko So I branched lp:ubuntu/kmod with the purpose of running modprobe in gdb but then I can't reproduce the error. :-/ $ ./tools/modprobe --set-version=3.8.0-5-generic --ignore-install --quiet --show-depends nouveau insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/kernel/drivers/i2c/algos/i2c-algo-bit.ko insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/drm.ko insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_kms_helper.ko insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm.ko insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/video.ko insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/wmi.ko insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/mxm-wmi.ko insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko $ ./tools/modprobe --set-version=3.8.0-5-generic --ignore-install --quiet --show-depends nvidia I expected at least an "insmod /lib/modules/3.8.0-5-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia_304_updates.ko" from probing nvidia with my local build so something else seems broken in this case. The local build is linked to kmod-nolib. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1097462 Title: kmod crashed with SIGABRT in __assert_fail_base() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kmod/+bug/1097462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
