I'm updating an IOKit driver that was written a couple of years
ago to support some new hardware. It loads OK on a G5 machine
running OS X 10.4.10 but not on a G4 machine running 10.4.6. The
driver itself was originally built on a 10.4.3 G5. However I
built the new version on a 10.4.10 Intel machine as a universal
binary.
I am a little bit confused as to why this is the case. I thought
building as a universal binary might be the issue, but the
reported errors don't seem to suggest that.
Any suggestions?
Building a universal I/O Kit driver is a bit tricky. Have you
followed the advice from TN2163?

I'm glad you posted that TN. I was looking for it whilst trying to
troubleshoot my problem but for some reason, it wasn't showing up in
my search.
I'll configure my driver appropriately and see if makes a difference.
