[Bug 356866] [NEW] latest upgrade of linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-24-rt under Hardy breaks nvidia drivers (and probably others too)

[Stéphane Magnenat]

Public bug reported:

After applying the latest securtiy fix on Ubuntu Hardy, which upgraded
the 2.6.24-24 and 2.6.24-24-rt kernel pakcages, the nvidia drivers and
emu10k1 drivers are broken under thr -rt kernel (but works under the
normal kernel). My guess is that some ABI change got silently introduced
which broke the -rt subsystem. Such sudden breackage of stable
distributions upon security fix is bad and damages much the reputation
of Ubuntu. Please fix this as soon as possible.

The errors are the followings, related to the versioning of the
__wake_up symbol it seems, as shown in the attached log file.
