Actually, a colleague of mine told me that this issue has been observed before on machines with mismatching kernel version and kernel headers version. Can you verify that: 1. You have installed the kernel headers If not, installing the "linux-headers" package should do. 2. You don't have mismatching kernel and headers versions Cyril
