Hi Ricardo, you mentioned that this needs to be fixed. I made a patch to fix this. I did not test the patch as I have no idea how to do that. I have not run the indent script on it.

This no longer exists in the latest version of the kernel Linux. That’s what this really bad error message tries to tell you: > Backtrace: > 8 (primitive-load "/gnu/store/vz7ci9rh483f2zps2cl174rd91b?") > In ice-9/eval.scm: > 619:8 7 (_ #f) > 626:19 6 (_ #) > 159:9 5 (_ _) > In gnu/build/linux-modules.scm: > 184:47 4 (recursive-module-dependencies _ #:lookup-module _) > 98:14 3 (module-dependencies _) > 85:18 2 (modinfo-section-contents _) > In ice-9/ports.scm: > 439:11 1 (call-with-input-file #f # ?) > In unknown file: > 0 (open-file #f "r" #:encoding #f #:guess-encoding #f) > > ERROR: In procedure open-file: > Wrong type (expecting string): #f > builder for `/gnu/store/0ahsvp7wx52zzh1rywbdbq78llcwb7id-linux-modules.drv' failed with exit code 1 (I only know this because I had the same problem.) Obviously, this error message should be changed. As a workaround you could switch to the LTS kernel where that module still exists. -- Ricardo
