I've successfully (%99.99) upgraded from F12 to F14 using PreUpgrade.
There is a little (missing %0.01) but rather weird problem. I use
gkremllm with a Dell I8K plugin installed. Two errors are reported after
the boot:
1.
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ixf86configmodule.so:
undefined symbol: xstrtokenize
(I'm not sure I understand this.)
2.
FATAL: Error inserting i8k (/lib/modules/2.6.35.6-48.fc14.i686.PAE/kernel/
drivers/char/i8k.ko): No such device
Now the interesting part. The directory and the module do exist. But when
I try to execute in console:
modprobe -v /lib/modules/2.6.35.6-48.fc14.i686.PAE/kernel/drivers/char/
i8k.ko
I'm having back an error message:
FATAL: Module /lib/modules/2.6.35.6_48.fc14.i686.PAE/kernel/drivers/char/
i8k.ko not found
Note the difference in 2 strings above:
2.6.35.6-48.fc14.i686.PAE - dash in the command to execute
and
2.6.35.6_48.fc14.i686.PAE - and underscore in the error message returned.
Is it a bug, or I'm missing something? Need some help here, please.
