kernel and modules version missmatch?

Post by valentt »

Hi guys,
I'm having issues installing kernel modules, it seams that kernel and modules are missmatched so I'm wondering how to fix this. Is there some other repository that I could use?

opkg info kmod-usb-serial-cp210x
Depends: kernel (=3.3.8-1-d6597ebf6203328d3519ea3c3371a493)

and kernel currently installed is:
opkg info kernel
Version: 3.3.8-1-9085b13c38263aeabdadc676913afc1c

Why is there a missmatch?

Because of that I can't install any additional kernel module:
~# opkg install kmod-usb-serial-cp210x
ERROR: Dependency kernel (= 3.3.8-1-d6597ebf6203328d3519ea3c3371a493) of package kmod-usb-serial-cp210x is installed,
but has incompatible version 3.3.8-1-9085b13c38263aeabdadc676913afc1c and is marked as 'hold'

I tried disabling openwrt source from /etc/opkg.conf and using only gargoyle source for packages but that didn't make any difference...

How could I fix this?

I have Gargoyle version 1.5.11, revision e3cc435, OpenWrt revision r38347, Target ar71xx/usb

I posted this because this is not a user issue only, you probably have some bug in your development infrastructure that is causing this missmatch. Hope this helps you track down this issue.

I would really appreciate push in the right direction.

Is there a way for me to download Gargoyle sources and compile firmware and all needed packages myself?

I'm custom to doing my own openwrt firmware images...

Compile your own gargoyle rom together with the package you requires will fix this problem.

This problem is caused by different version/revision of Gargoyle ROM against Openwrt's repository. Gargoyle tends to be older than Openwrt's.

Btw, are you able to clone the gargoyle repository? I can't for unknown reasons...

PM me if you need to buy Gargoyle router in Australia/NZ, willing to pay me to help you on your Gargoyle configurations or build custom configured ROM with pre-installed app or try to fix your bricked router. Yes, I am looking for job/work.

Run:

opkg install opkg

and that should fix everything.
