No configuration found in new kernel for lan


I compiled a new kernel 2.6.22.4 and installed the module SC92031 for the Intex Lan card that has a fake chipset as per the information given on announcement pages of kernel 2.6.21 I assumed that when I boot from this new kernel the driver in new kernel for my card should have worked but when I booted form this new kernel and configured my lan card an error came
No configuration found for eth2
where as #dmesg gives me following output

RAMDISK driver initialized: 16 RAM disks of 64000K size 1024 blocksize
Silan SC92031 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter driver 2.0c
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:03.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16

8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.28
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:02.0[A] -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 21
eth0: RealTek RTL8139 at 0xdce52100, 00:19:d1:3b:53:1b, IRQ 21
eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8101'
eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0x45E1
hda-intel: Invalid position buffer, using LPIB read method instead


What I did was I loaded the old configuration file of my previous kernel and compiled the kernel with support for module n netword drivers with
Module for SC92031 chipsets


lcpci output is

02:02.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
02:03.0 Ethernet controller: Hangzhou Silan Microelectronics Co., Ltd. Unknown device 2031 (rev 01)



but when I do a
#modprobe sc92031

then following error comes
FATAL: Module sc92031 not found.
in case there is some mistake that I have done while compiling as I mentioned method above and installing the new kernel a;long with new drivers then suggest me some way to change the way I compiled the new kernel
