53 I would try to recompile the kernel. You should also set the
54 /usr/src/linux symlink accordingly (to your actual kernel sources).
55 Reboot to machine after rebuilding the kernel and then rebuild the
56 module itself.
57 Maybe try - as Wonko stated in another mail - module versioning support.
58
59 For the whole process make sure that you use a consistent toolchain
60 (gcc, linux-headers, kernel-sources, glibc, binutils come to mind)
