By default, modprobe checks the "/lib/modules/`uname -r`" tree. You need to copy the driver's .ko file somewhere in there and "depmod -a" afterwards. The module's "make modules install" or "make install" command should do these steps for you. If all you want to do is test it, you can "modprobe /full/path/to/your/module.ko" to force a load. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, C2 Hosting ricks@xxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - To err is human.
