The message means one of two things usually: |

|
| 10 |
1. You are building the module against kernel sources (or |
| 11 |
configuration) that do not match your running kernel. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
2. You are using a different version of gcc to compile the module than |
| 14 |
you did for your kernel. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
In both cases, the best solution is to build and install a fresh |
| 17 |
kernel from the kernel sources. |
