I'm not sure if this would help, but try using "modprobe" instead of
"insmod". Usually you get those sort of errors when your modules versions
dont match your kernel versions. Modprobe is usually quite good at resolving
this.
Also, make sure you have done a "make modules_install" after doing a "make
modules", and that you are indeed using the kernel you compiled.
Keep well,
Ray
