After upgrading the kernel on lucid 64bit lts server from 2.6.32-26 to
2.6.32-37 ipmitool is failing to read sdr.

$ sudo ipmitool sdr
Could not open device at /dev/ipmi0 or /dev/ipmi/0 or /dev/ipmidev/0:
No such file or directory
Get Device ID command failed
Unable to open SDR for reading

$ sudo modprobe ipmi_si
FATAL: Error inserting ipmi_si
(/lib/modules/2.6.32-37-generic/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si.ko):
No such device

previous kernel has this module
$ ls /lib/modules/2.6.32-36-generic/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-36-generic/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si.ko

filed a bug, bug id: 916200

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
