Hi Everybody,
I have recently upgraded from Redhat Linux 7.1 kernel
version 2.4.2 to 2.4.10. I am trying to insert a
driver module "code.o" (which was perfectly fine in the previous kernel)into
the new Kernel. But on insmod i get
an error:-
"kernel-module version mismatch. code.o was compiled
for kernel version 2.4.2-2 while this kernel is
version 2.4.10"
Although i am able to insert the driver module with
the -f(force) switch. But this results in a faulty
operation of the driver module. Rather i get an OOps message
I have tried recompiling the source of gcc in this new kernel but
that has also not solved this problem. Help will be
appreciated! Thank you.
Kashif!

Not sure what recompiling gcc would achieve ... you need to recompile
this code.o module under your new RedHat kernel.
