Downloaded Linux kernel 2.6.35-rc5 If you are running a distribution like most people be sure you grab the kernel from the distro you are using and not from kernel.org. Robert Day's site has enough free lessons to do what you want and its more recent. I think he is using Ubuntu for a distro. http://crashcourse.ca/introduction-linux-kernel-programming/lesson-1-building-and-running-new-linux-kernel -- John That resolved the error. Actually I was building the module for the newly compiled kernel, but should have built for the kernel I am running on my system. Thanks for the link ! -- Cheers !!!
