He should also check what dmesg says when modprobing the module, that usually gives a clue. An elementary Google search reveals that it's usually obvious things like trying to load a module built for a different kernel version, or trying to load a module that is not compatible with another one already loaded. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
