I'm a best damn fool! I didn't. Now it installed ok, thanks.

dgbaley27 commented on 2014-07-08 15:30 (UTC)

... and then you did pacman -U ?

Or in case of successful installation there's have to be some other output lines? Sorry for messy comment.

Zzaponka, if you installed 'synaptics-led' but don't see it in $(pacman -Qm), then check the output of your install command because it didn't actually install. That said, the package likely needs to be updated for linux-3.15.

Zzaponka commented on 2014-07-08 14:26 (UTC)

Additionally, I can't see synaptics-led as installed by typing pacman -Qm Is it ok?

Zzaponka commented on 2014-07-08 14:13 (UTC)

The problem with xf86-input-synaptics-led is still here. It complains that synaptics-led is unresolved dependency, but I just installed this package. Is is possible to fix somehow this issue? Thanks in advance.

New PKGBUILD is ok, but it's not working with xf86-input-synaptics-led-1.6.2-3.

dgbaley27 commented on 2012-11-18 09:23 (UTC)

I finally came across some more information about the LED patch. It is being hosted in OpenSUSE's kernel git tree [1]. Also, it seems like they decided to drop supported due to instability [2][3][4]. There are some newer versions of the patch in git (before being deleted), and attached to the bug reports. I'll be posting an update soon. [1] http://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel-source/ [2] http://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel-source/commit/patches.drivers?id=940e57e2c66093f6fee481ab4224dd4294e3793f [3] https://bugzilla.novell.com/768506 [4] https://bugzilla.novell.com/765524 I think there might also be updates to the xf86-input-synaptics led patches too, so I'll do what I can to update those as well.

This is due to a bug in kmod v11, kmod 11-2 in testing fixes this (or kmod 12...)

Hi. When I install this package, it compiles just fine into the package, but on install, it gives me this error: depmod: tools/depmod.c:980: mod_free: Assertion `mod->kmod == ((void *)0)' failed. /tmp/alpm_z5eKAW/.INSTALL: line 1: 9275 Aborted depmod error: command failed to execute correctly
