dmesg will give you more details. This usually means you compiled the kernel modules against a different build of the kernel. So, the kernel source you used didn't match what was on the beaglebone.
You can install the kernel-headers and kernel-dev packages and build directly on the beaglebone. For some time, these packages weren't in sync with the actual kernel installed...as always, good luck with Angstrom.
