Trusty 3.13.0-14-generic config shows IPMI_HANDLER option set to Y:
CONFIG_ACPI_IPMI=m
CONFIG_IPMI_HANDLER=y
# CONFIG_IPMI_PANIC_EVENT is not set
CONFIG_IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE=m
CONFIG_IPMI_SI=m
CONFIG_IPMI_WATCHDOG=m
CONFIG_IPMI_POWEROFF=m
..with the 3.13.0-8 kernel it is set to "m", and this was the last kernel that I ran where openipmi didn't have issues
Joseph's test kernel shows this and it works as expected with openipmi in that the service starts properly. IPMI_HANDLER is set to 'm':
CONFIG_ACPI_IPMI=m
CONFIG_IPMI_HANDLER=y
# CONFIG_IPMI_PANIC_EVENT is not set
CONFIG_IPMI_DEVICE_INTERFACE=m
CONFIG_IPMI_SI=m
CONFIG_IPMI_WATCHDOG=m
CONFIG_IPMI_POWEROFF=m
I will test rc1 tomorrow as I ran out of time today.
