in the tape390.o module. That module must be insmodded/modprobed first. (Since it is the module upon which others depend, it will _not_ cause any other modules to be loaded.) Then you should be able to insmod -f tape_3590_mod.o and have it load correctly. Mark Post -Original Message- From: Linux

be using the kernel headers that match the running kernel. If you want them to match, you're probably looking at rebuilding glibc on your system. That will probably put you into an unsupported configuration as far as SUSE is concerned, though. Mark Post -Original Message- From: Linux
