"failed to load module" after installing Gren-Trulan's AV Jessie kernel

Post by bartok »

Installed kernels 4.4.30-rt41-avl2 and 4.6.5-rt10-avl1 and both give me "failed to load module" on boot.

This is the output of command "systemctl -l status systemd-modules-load.service"
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd-modules-load[715]: Inserted module 'lp'
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd-modules-load[715]: Inserted module 'ppdev'
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd-modules-load[715]: Inserted module 'parport_pc'
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd-modules-load[715]: Inserted module 'fuse'
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd-modules-load[715]: Inserted module 'snd_aloop'
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd-modules-load[715]: Inserted module 'snd_seq_midi'
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd[1]: systemd-modules-load.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd[1]: Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
dic 07 07:02:07 homestudio systemd[1]: Unit systemd-modules-load.service entered failed state.
Warning: Journal has been rotated since unit was started. Log output is incomplete or unavailable.
There are two files in /etc/modules-load.d, those are: cups-filters.conf modules.conf

Content of cups-filters.conf:
Parallel printer driver modules loading for cups
# LOAD_LP_MODULE was 'yes' in /etc/default/cups
lp
ppdev
parport_pc
Content of modules.conf:

# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

snd-aloop
snd-seq-midi
The weird thing is that sound works fine afterwards. Snd-aloop does load in 4.6.5-rt10-avl1 and only loads "half" in 4.4.30-rt41-avl2 this means jack2alsa appear connected to system capture but alsa2jack not connected to system playback on Catia. This was solved by manually connecting on the patchbay. However, I'd really like to understard why are these errors showing up.

Does midi work as well?

Does the snd_seq_midi module load properly? You can check if it's loaded with:

Code: Select all

lsmod | grep snd_seq_midi
If it's not, try manually loading the module (as root):

Code: Select all

modprobe snd_seq_midi
I don't usually have snd_seq_midi in etc/modules, it has always worked for me to let the system load it when I plug in a midi device. You could try commenting out that line and see if the error goes away.
