Title:
  crystalhd kernel module fails to build on 3.5.x kernel  [fatal error:
  asm/system.h: No such file or directory]

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After updating 12.04.1 LTS to 'quantal' kernel, module "crystalhd"
  fails to build due to missing headers such as asm/system.h -- similar
  to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-
  drivers/+bug/993506 and similarly, solved by copying missing x86
  headers from ARM. Note that the original 12.04.1 LTS kernel did not
  have this problem with 'crystalhd-dkms' and module "crystalhd" ...

  Consult /var/lib/dkms/crystalhd/0.0~git20110715.fdd2f19/build/make.log for more information.
  ==============================================================================

  To fix, I did the following as root (which needs to be redone on each
  quantal kernel upgrade until this bug is fixed):

  ==============================================================================
  cd /usr/src/linux-headers-3.5.0-37/arch/
  cp arm/include/asm/system.h x86/include/asm/
  cp arm/include/asm/compiler.h x86/include/asm/
  cp arm/include/asm/system_info.h x86/include/asm/
  cp arm/include/asm/system_misc.h x86/include/asm/
  apt-get purge crystalhd-dkms
  ==============================================================================

  Now the package builds successfully:

  apt-get install crystalhd-dkms
