You need to read about kernel versioning support. See for example Documentation/modules.txt in the kernel source tree. Also look in your kernel .config (near the beginning) for lines like this: ------------------------------------------------------------------ # # Loadable module support # CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y CONFIG_KMOD=y ------------------------------------------------------------------ I recommend compiling vanilla 2.4.25 from scratch, and leaving the Fedora kernel alone as is much-patched. You're a bit new to this stuff and it will confuse you even more than you are already. :) 73, Ged. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
