1 anyone using media-video/usb-pwcx?

3 I know all about the closed source controversy, but I"m just trying to get ti
4 to load. I see that the pwc.c module in 2.4.26 still has the hooks for pwcx,
5 but I get this error:

27 I'm guessing the problem is kernel versioning (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS) and the
28 binary module being built without it.
29 can anyone confirm that?
30 Is there a work around other than turning off CONFIG_MODVERSIONS?
