pcmcia support, debian 1.2, NEC versa 6030H
hi all, recently installed debian linux 1.2 on my NEC versa 6030H after installing the .deb for pcmcia-cs and pcmcia-modules-2.0.27 (my kernel, the default installed kernel, is 2.0.27 according to uname -a), the card stuff comes up at boot time but tells me, among other errors: Loading failed! The module symbols (from linux-2.0.27) don't match your linux-2.0.27 Any suggestions, short of grabbing the pcmcia source and building it myself? I do believe I have correctly loaded the kernel-2.0.27 package, although I may be wrong. Anyone know if this is fixed in 1.3? If so, and the late april release for such will be on time, I'll just wait. thanks, danno dan pritts Unix System Admin First Virtual Holdings, Inc.

The module symbols (from linux-2.0.27) don't match your linux-2.0.27 I am currently looking at the PCMCIA How-to and it says: If insmod reports ``wrong version'' errors, it means that the module was compiled for a different kernel version than your system is actually running. This might occur if modules compiled on one machine are copied to another machine with a different configuration, or if the kernel is reconfigured after PCMCIA is installed. Another source of module loading errors is when the modules and kernel were compiled with different settings of CONFIG_MODVERSIONS. If a module with version checking is loaded against a kernel without version checking, insmod will complain about undefined symbols. Any suggestions, short of grabbing the pcmcia source and building it myself? I do believe I have correctly loaded the kernel-2.0.27 package, although I may be wrong. Anyone know if this is fixed in 1.3? If so, and the late april release for such will be on time, I'll just wait. thanks, danno dan pritts Unix System Admin First Virtual Holdings, Inc.

Re: pcmcia support, debian 1.2, NEC versa 6030H
The error message is misleading, to say the least. The problem is most likely that between the kernel and the modules, one is compiled with CONFIG_MOD_VERSIONS set and the other is not. To fix it you could install the kernel sources, run make menuconfig, and compile the kernel and modules: make dep make clean make zImage [Test the new kernel. I copy it to my dos partition and use loadlin.exe after booting Caldera opendos.] make modules make modules_install . I have done this several times and I am 'C' illiterate. --Brian.
