ice1712.ko missing from debian-sources-4.4.6

[hick518]

This seems to be a known issue.  My sound card requires snd-ice1712.  It worked with debian-sources-3.19.3 but not with 4.4.6.  ice1712.ko is missing when I run debian-sources-4.4.6.

 

Can anyone recommend a current kernel which will enable this module?  Or is there some way to enable it in the most recent debian-sources kernel?

 

You can test whether your kernel includes this module by running 'modprobe snd-ice1712'.  If you do not get a "module not found" error, please let me know!

Bug report: debian-sources-4.4.6-amd64 not building snd-ice1712.ko
 
added 4.5.2 kernel but it's masked (for testing sake). Please, unmask and test. snd-ice1712.ko looks present.

 

Test looks good, snd-ice1712.ko is built/installed with debian-sources-4.5.2

I tested debian-sources-4.5.2 successfully and updated the bug report. 

 

I'm also testing gentoo-sources, based on your and tmp-meteque's comments in http://forums.funtoo.org/topic/923-upgrading-debian-sources-requires-14-gb-in-vartmp

 

Thanks!

For the record, gentoo-sources-4.4.6 contains this driver (built with 'genkernel all').  I tested it and my sound card works.
