G'day all, I have a pci card that requires a module to be loaded for it to work. The module is called EtCM.o and was compiled with 2.4.21-37.ELsmp. I am trying, without much success, to install it onto a fc4 linux box running... [root@blenny EtCM]# uname -r 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp >>From research it looks like 2.6 kenels need .ko module names and not .o ones. I am trying to get the vendor to compile for a newer kernel but I don't think that is going to fly, they have eol'd the card (I have asked if they will release the code since it is eol but I won't hold my breath on that one) What other options do I have, I don't want to drop to an older kernel, but it might be the only solution. It used to get installed using... insmod -f /usr/lib/eicon/conf/EtCM/EtCM.o ec_nbuf=128 ec_nreq=256 ec_watchtime=30 But insmod seems to have lost the -f flag, not sure that would have helped in any case. I tried using another distros module but that just came up with other erros about missing modules. insmod /lib/modules/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp/eicon/EtCM.ko ec_nbuf=128 ec_nreq=256 ec_watchtime=30 FATAL: Error inserting EtCM (/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp/eicon/ EtCM.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) [root@blenny EtCM]# dmesg|tail EtCM: Unknown symbol ecios_mem_write EtCM: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module EtCM: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module EtCM: no version magic, tainting kernel.
