And when you do
sudo modprobe hdaps
this is after some install of sorts?
The fact that the make for tp_smapi misidentifies the kernel makes me suspect it may not be for Ubuntu.
I thought Ubuntu used vanilla kernels, but perhaps not quite...

This may explain it - I think there's a newer kernel available in the repos

how would i go about updating my kernel in mint?
apt-get or better I think with mintUpdate - you set all levels to be visible
BUT - I did not find a new kernel - seems I was mistaken
To get it you probably have to edit sources list so all repos are active temporarily (don't know where a kernel may hide :))
There certainly is a newer kernel, if in the more or less normal repos leaves me uncertain now...
