Thanks; that confirmed that the RTAI modules can, in fact, be found.

And that finally cleared things up a bit: It seems modprobe works only for modules it already knows about; for others use insmod. Since I want to make my locally-developed modules dependent on the RTAI modules, I created those symlinks & ran depmod. My thanks to the both of you; you've just made it possible for me to leave & go home. :) --Joel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
