Re: Edwin, USA, kernel 3.0.0-12-generic

Edwin,

It could be a detection problem?  kernel 3.0.X is newer than 2.6.20,
2.6.39.X, etc.  Maybe martian code is not 3.X kernel friendly, I
thought that there could be error messages about some
things(functions) that have changed with the new kernel releases, but
the make command returns something different.  I will try to check up
on that and cc. to Marv in case he has some suggestions for you to try
out.

Regards,

Antonio
