Hello, I think that a problem is module-init program insmod insmod don't load any module.I tried for psmouse next : insmod psmouse Can't open 'psmouse': No such file or directory modprobe psmouse modprobe work I use module-init-tools 0.9.13 and kernel 2.6.0-test4 (MDK 9.1 and I have to delete -static when compile insmod) module-init-tools-0.9.14-pre1 don't compile - libsupport.h dosen't exists
