new kernel after customer updates.

This error is a generic issue for Dynamic Kernel

Module Support (DKMS) and applies to all

DKMS-enabled driver packages. This issue

occurs when you perform the following steps:

1

Install a DKMS-enabled driver package.

2

Run up2date or a similar tool to upgrade the

kernel to the latest version.

3

Reboot to the new kernel.
The driver running in the new kernel is the

native driver of the new kernel. The driver

package you installed previously in the new

kernel does not take effect in the new kernel.

Perform the following procedure to make the

driver auto-build into the new kernel:

1

Type:
dkms build -m <module_name> -v
<module version> -k <kernel
version>

2

Type:
dkms install -m <module_name> -
v <module version> -k <kernel
version>

3

Type the following to check whether the driver

is successfully installed in the new kernel:
