Hello,

now tested the binary compiled on RPi 1 on the RPi 2 - after copying the
full source including build directory of cmake and executing "sudo make
install" on the RPi 2.

The result: this works fine!
Do i have to conclude, that Raspbian's g++/gcc compiler does produce
wrong code when executed on RPi 2 ?!
gcc/g++ (Debian 4.6.3-14+rpi1) 4.6.3

OK, now verify: make clean, rebuild and install new binary (from the
build directory copied from RPi 1):
this works!  but, i don't understand why!
Now reboot, so that kernel module reloads:  still works!

In the end, i'm happy that it works "somehow". But, i've no idea where
the problem lies!

kind regards,
Hayati
