Sound like same issue which is with kernel modules in general. Is the
module should be compiled against the same kernel which will load the
module. So the question is: is the module compiled against the same
kernel which is in your 770 (the default 770 kernel unless you have
replaced it with your own)?
You can find the kernel sources from maemo website with little digging
which you can use for compiling the module.
Another possible cause could be that the kernel module is not compiled
for ARM, which could happen as user mistake or if the kernel module
described above is delivered as a binary (just trying to take in account
every possible reason)... 100% sure the module is for ARM?
And the third question is 'is the module compiled with same gcc version
as the kernel in the device?'. I was bitten by this. I compiled source
provided by nokia with default gcc 3.3 Everything went fine but I had
same mesage when insmod-ing on the device. I had to recompile it with
3.4 and that worked fine. It is described in the wiki.
