so you are using a driver meant for stable (old) systems, with a pre |
23 |
release kernel - and you don't even know what do do with that message? |
24 |
|
25 |
Does that do no seem a bit silly? hm? |
26 |
|
27 |
acpi_bus_get_device is gpl only. You can undo that. If you want. |
28 |
|
29 |
But seriously, what is wrong with using stable releases like 3.10.x? If |
30 |
you use ati-drivers, you don't need the amd driver improvements in 3.11 |
31 |
or 3.12. |
