Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.17

linux-image-2.6.17 upgraded from 10.33 to 10.34 (edgy-security) and module snd_hda_intel no longer loads on my MacBook Pro.

dmesg has lots of symbol mismatch fun:
[17181190.512000] snd_timer: disagrees about version of symbol snd_info_register
[17181190.512000] snd_timer: Unknown symbol snd_info_register

The word is that compiling the latest ALSA by hand cures these woes. See "2.6.17 murdered my sound" on forums:

The only way this can happen is that you have self compiled modules on your system. Can't fix that.

Must confirm this error.
I had a perfectly running 2.6.17-10.33 and did an update/upgrade to 2.6.17.1-10.34 and
had above problems.

Checked modules and kernel with my laptop where the modules can be loaded and they are identical (same md5 sums). Kernels are identical on both systems too.
