Try loading them this way. If that does not work, can you use insmod instead?

I did create the makefile like that. Then I copied my *.ko files to /lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION/kernel.. but when I tried to run "depmod -a", I am getting this (Loop detected) error. If, I dont run depmod before modprobe then modprobe cant able to find that module. Am I missing something ?

    You will have to specify the following in the Makefile to enforce
    dependency.

    obj-m := load1.o load2.o

    You do not have to club all of the code into one main file for this
    thing. You should be fine using a Makefile.
