I believe that you can still build with gcc-2.95. To the best of my
recollection I did do that at least once... although I've been using 3.2
for the most recent builds.
The new modules (*.ko) do not work with the old module utils. It may be
that you just have to rebuild the kernel with the presence of these new
utilities.

Description: tools for managing Linux kernel modules
This package contains a set of programs for loading, inserting, and
