Hi Alan! what means "owned by kernel" ???? I mean, this is a module that is running at all other distros, but not on the gentoo machine.
Is there something I have builtin the kernel that I should propably leave out ??? Sangoma for sure wouldn't have released the module when it wouldn't have been successfully tested.
