[ATrpms-users] kernel tainted?

Sat Apr 7 10:41:23 CEST 2007

hello at,

any idea why i might be getting "kernel tainted?"  perhaps because some
symbols are missing, or something doesn't quite match?

i'm trying to get sound working.  having freshly installed fc5, in
/etc/sysconfig/hwconf i find:

    class: OTHER
    bus: ISAPNP
    detached: 0
    desc: "ESS1869"
    deviceId: ESS1869

so i was hoping these these would do the trick:

                   alsa-driver-1.0.14-58_rc3.fc5.at
   alsa-kmdl-2.6.20-1.2307.fc5-1.0.14-58_rc3.fc5.at
      kernel-2.6.20-1.2307.fc5

but when i "modprobe snd_es18xx", i get:

> snd: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
> ALSA /var/tmp/bach-build/BUILD/alsa-driver-1.0.14rc3/isa/../alsa-kernel/isa/es18xx.c:1836: es18xx: unable to grap ports 0x220-0x22f

perhaps i should abandon the rpm's and try the alsa source?  but i
thought first i'd ask, anybody have any other idea?

one possible source of trouble i can imagine is that i temporarily had
these modules installed, then removed:

    alsa-kmdl-2.6.20-1.2307.fc5xenU-1.0.14-58_rc3.fc5.at
    alsa-oss-1.0.12-4.fc7
    alsa-oss-libs-1.0.12-4.fc7
    alsa-tools-1.0.12-4.fc7
    kernel-2.6.15-1.2054_FC5
    kernel-2.6.20-1.3038.fc7
    kernel-headers-2.6.20-1.3036.fc7
    kernel-xenU-2.6.20-1.2307.fc5

(and when removing them, smart restored: )

    glibc-kernheaders-3.0-5.2

but it doesn't really seem so likely that caused a residual problem.

fwiw, here's a fuller selection of messages from /var/log/messages:
