| |
Question on using modules with kernel. I've been building the latest git kernels for the G4L project, and the latest kernels have added support for a lot of newer hardware, but currently have two of the nic drivers that cause problems when build into the kernel.
DEPCA causes a kernel panic. TLAN just stops during the boot. Without these, the kernel boots fine. Unfortunately, I don't have either of these cards, so built it with these as modules, and put the .ko files in the /lib/modules/2.6.20 directory. Would the instructions for a user that does have one of these cards just to use insmod?
I generally have about 9000 downloads per month of the project files, so would assume that some users would have these cards.
Thanks.
