Comment 25 for bug 297750

I've verified that the module-init-tools package in intrepid,3.3-pre11-4ubuntu16, doesn't blacklist the amd76x_edac driver; however, I am unable to verify that the version in intrepid-proposed, 3.3-pre11-4ubuntu17, does so either:

  $ dpkg -S /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
  module-init-tools: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

  $ apt-cache policy module-init-tools
  module-init-tools:
    Installed: 3.3-pre11-4ubuntu17
    Candidate: 3.3-pre11-4ubuntu17
    Version table:

          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       3.3-pre11-4ubuntu16 0
          500 http://127.0.0.1 intrepid/main Packages

  $ grep -ri amd76 /etc/modprobe.d/
  $ tail -5 /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
  blacklist asus_acpi

  # low-quality, just noise when being used for sound playback, causes
  # hangs at desktop session start (Ubuntu: #246969)
  blacklist snd_pcsp

  $ wc -l /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
  45 /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

Am I looking in the wrong location? Or did something go wrong with this update?

I did walk through installing the kernel in intrepid-proposed and rebooting with this version of module-init-tools installed, and everything worked successfully, so the package doesn't appear to introduce any new regressions.
