I have a Banana PI M1+ with latest Armbian Jessie with 3.4.109 kernel.

The dmesg contains many rows like this ones

...
[ 1468.309084] Loading kernel module for a network device with CAP_SYS_MODULE (deprecated).  Use CAP_NET_ADMIN and alias netdev- instead.
...
...
[ 2779.128724] Loading kernel module for a network device with CAP_SYS_MODULE (deprecated).  Use CAP_NET_ADMIN and alias netdev- instead.
...

I tried to search on Google without success.

 

Can someone help me please?

 

Thanks.

The system seems to work without problem.

This is the output of lsmod

root@bananapi:~# lsmod

It happens after login in graphical environment (XFCE). I have checked dmesg with putty from another computer, and no such row until login. So I analyzed better my desktop, and I found out the problem: Network Monitor Applet (added by me together with other applets). I removed it and the message disappeared.

 

Problem solved. Thanks for support.
