Hmm... After I played with the sound Makefile (see patch below), I got
the soundscape module to build with it's required support modules
(ad1848.o, and mpu401.o). I ended up with some 'interesting' module
dependances:
/lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/ad1848.o: /lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/sound.o
/lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/mpu401.o: /lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/sound.o
/lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/sound_syms.o: /lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/sound.o
/lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/sscape.o: /lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/ad1848.o /lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/mpu401.o /lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/sound.o
all fine so far:
/lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/sound.o: /lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/mpu401.o /lib/modules/2.1.77/misc/sound.o
Ok, so sound.o depends on mpu401.o (which depends on sound.o -> problems),
and sound.o also depends on sound.o, annother circular dependancy...
modprobe was not at all happy when I tried to load the sound module, it
died with a segv, and dumped core (the core has 24656 instances of the
string 'sound').
Now for the patch, I think that this is the way to do the driver X.o
requires Y.o, and Z.o
