First I linked it: # ls -la /lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r8/kernel/drivers/video/ total 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 144 Jul 17 22:21 . drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 344 May 14 18:34 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 72 May 14 18:34 backlight -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4291 May 14 18:34 output.ko lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Jul 17 22:21 radeon.so -> /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so but since that did not work, I copied it: # ls -la /lib/modules/2.6.24-gentoo-r8/kernel/drivers/video/ total 448 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 176 Jul 17 22:27 . drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 344 May 14 18:34 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 72 May 14 18:34 backlight -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4291 May 14 18:34 output.ko lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Jul 17 22:21 radeon.so -> /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 448808 Jul 17 07:09 radeon_drv.so Modprobing either of the two fails with the same error message. -- Regards, Mick
