module version mismatch ??

Hi all,

I have a Centos 5.5 system that I think has a module mis-match problem (between /lib/modules/ and uname).

when I try to start NFS services it fails:

Dec 31 10:48:40 localhost modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.33-co-0.8.0/modules.dep: No such file or directory
Dec 31 10:48:40 localhost nfsd[2737]: nfssvc: No such device

but when I look at /lib/modules I see:

[root@localhost ~]# ls /lib/modules/
2.6.18-128.el5 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5

AND uname indicates I'm running on a more recent kernel:

[root@localhost ~]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.33-co-0.8.0 #1 PREEMPT Sun Mar 21 19:46:28 UTC 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

so How do I fix this?

thanks in advance,
Steve

Where did you get kernel 2.6.33-co-0.8.0 from? You need to install the modules for it because neither of the directories you have there will work with it.
