Why are kernel modules incompatible between builds and between versions? For example, I have a box running 2.0.34 which I don't want to reboot, but I want to "insmod eql" which wasn't compiled with the kernel. Using the module from another 2.0.34 box gets me
yodeller# insmod eql ./eql.o: unresolved symbol dev_get_R6bfd1638 ./eql.o: unresolved symbol dev_kfree_skb_R9b548e71 ./eql.o: unresolved symbol register_netdev_R151649b5 ./eql.o: unresolved symbol unregister_netdev_Reac28925 ./eql.o: unresolved symbol dev_queue_xmit_R668d85ca Trying to use precompiled modules packages usually gets the same response for me (eg ftape). Similarly precompiled modules for one kernel version never work on another; should/shouldn't they? thanks, Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3TYD [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Debian packages at ftp://ftp.rising.com.au/pub/hamish.
