[Bug 1088160] Re: module-assistant install of openvswitch-datapath fails on quantal due to drop of _mod postfix

[Peng Yong]

brcompat failed with linux-image-3.5.0-24-generic.

# /etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch start
FATAL: Error inserting brcompat (/lib/modules/3.5.0-24-generic/kernel/brcompat.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
 * Inserting brcompat module
Module has probably not been built for this kernel.
For instructions, read
/usr/share/doc/openvswitch-datapath-source/README.Debian
FATAL: Error inserting brcompat (/lib/modules/3.5.0-24-generic/kernel/brcompat.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
 * Inserting brcompat module

dmesg shows:

[  362.917013] brcompat: Unknown symbol ovs_dp_ioctl_hook (err 0)

there is a openvswitch  module in linux-image-3.5.0-24-generic now.
