Bug Description

If one tries to replace -generic with -preempt the nouveau module will uninstall. It might be nice to provide support for using both at the same time.

[This is an automated message. Apologies if it has reached you inappropriately.]

This bug was reported against the linux-meta package when it likely should have been reported against the linux package instead. We are automatically transitioning this to the linux kernel package so that the appropriate teams are notified and made aware of this issue.

If this bug really is a bug in the linux-meta package you can move it back to linux-meta and tag it kj-linux-meta, or contact us on the #ubuntu-kernel channel on the FreeNode IRC server. Thanks.

This bug was fixed in the package linux-backports-modules-2.6.32 - 2.6.32-16.7

linux-backports-modules-2.6.32 (2.6.32-16.7) lucid; urgency=low

  [ Tim Gardner ]

  * Added preempt flavour
    - LP: #527459
  * udev looks for firmware in /lib/firmware/updates/`uname -r` first.
    This allows the installation of compat firmware without having to
    change files names.
  * compat wireless has its own compat firmware class driver
    This requires a new script and udev rule. Fixes firmware
    load problems since 2.6.32-15.5.

@David -- it should be noted that as of 2.6.32-16 kernels nouveau is now builtin to the main kernel and this backport is no longer needed.
