Has anyone else had problems loading the kernel module under 2.4.0-test11?
Every time I try to insmod it, it segfaults. Here's the entry from
/var/log/messages...

Then, annoyingly, the module is listed under lsmod as being
uninitialized- if I try to rmmod it, it says the device or resource
is busy.
Anyone else experiancing this?
thanks,
