help needed compiling kernel
Hi, I have just compiled my kernel and despite everything looking alright (kernel is booting and X is starting) there are still some things I don't know are right.
First, when I do "lsmod", no modules seem to be loaded. Is that alright? second, I just compiled a module (pegasus.o) and when I try to insert it, the kernel complains about a kernel mismatch saying the module was build for the 2.4.18 kernel and that this is 2.4.19. But I changed the makefile of the module to include the 2.4.19 header files (so it would say something like "gcc -I /to/my/kernel-2.4.19/include/ ..... ) and i'm sure I'm inserting the newly build module. when I force the insertion of the module, my system hangs. whats the deal here? |
nevermind the second thing, got it fixed

Ad 1)
really, that depends on a number of things :) How many of your drivers did you actually compile as midules? Does your initialization script know about them? In my case for instance /etc/rc.d/rc.modules is doing the job of actually loading my required modules. Cheers, Tink |
