I will try the -f suggestion, but what is the module name? the rpm name? thanks guys norman Brentley wrote: <blockquote cite="mid40793959040623192424125f6f@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <blockquote type="cite"> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">2.6.5-1.358.8kstacks not 2.6.5-1.358 </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap="">You say it does not work and it does work, but are not specific about the errors seen, conditions, or what is being tested. </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> I agree, you haven't given enough information, but I'll take a stab at it anyway.... The module was probably compiled for a specific kernel version, and it's thrown by the 8kstacks on the end of the name... try modprobe -f modulename The -f will force the loading of the module... let us know if that works. -Brent </pre> </blockquote> </body> </html>
