You see? It's only in UML.

Your problem seems just that gdb does not find the file chardriver.o, which is 
probably inside the guest (you say that in the mail). Gdb has no special 
access to files inside the VM.

Btw, since you have a .o module I assume you are _STILL_ using a 2.4 UML 
kernel, right?
