Comment 15 for bug 269831

Hello Andy,

I did also get this kernel, but it can not load the toshiba_acpi module.
When I try to load the module I recieve:

 sudo modprobe toshiba_acpi
FATAL: Error inserting toshiba_acpi
(/lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.ko):
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

In the syslog I see this:

Nov 18 18:59:07 laptop2 kernel: [ 1832.269379] toshiba_acpi: Unknown
parameter `hotkeys_over_acpi'

I have not yet compiled the module as Andrew described in the forum,
should it not work without ?

André
