People reported that exactly this prevents the module from working although it seems to be loaded! Maybe it cannot lookup the symbol table correctly if you compile it against anything else than the source of the running kernel. Compile with: -I/usr/local/src/kernel/linux-that-I-run/include/ If you do no longer have your kernel source it is sufficient to copy the /boot/config-2.4.20-my-kernel (or whatever) back, do "make oldconfig && make dep && make bzImage && make modules" and then use this tree. bye, -christian-
