My Samsung Galaxy S2 kernel version is *Linux version 3.0.31-889555 (dpi@DELL228) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) ) #3 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 31 14:48:54 KST 2013*
I have to build a kernel module to enable VCP support on my android phone (following this<http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/TechnicalNotes/TN_132_Adding_FTDI_Devices_VCP_Driver_Support_to_Android.pdf>tutorial). Because I wasn't able to find the kernel source for *3.0.31-889555* I used the *3.0.31 *sources to build the kernel module. The build succeed and I copied the kernel module to my sdcard and executed *insmod* just as like the whitepaper says and I ran into the *"version magic should be”* problem, which was totally OK because the module was indeed compiled under a different kernel. Then I changed the *EXTRAVERSION* in the Makefile to *-**889555* to allow the module to be injected, even if the injection was successful the module won't work. Does changing the *EXTRAVERSION* field of the Makefile has any effect on the module behavior, for example, can cause the model to function improperly, if the the answer is yes, should I: 1. change the kernel on my phone to *3.0.31* so the compiled module will match the actual kernel version 2. find and download the *3.0.31-889555* kernel and build the kernel module with that kernel Any help appreciated! -- -- unsubscribe: android-kernel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-kernel --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Linux Kernel Development" group.
