[gobolinux-users] Kernel modules woahs

[James Mathews]

Hey.

I've recently installed gobo linux and I'm loving it, brilliant idea
and well implemented.

I'm having a little trouble with some kernel modules though....

I have an rt2500 wi-fi card. There are kernel drivers for this (I used
them in my last linux setup). I downloaded the drivers and compiled
the modules. I ran modules_install from the makescript with the
drivers and It installed them to:

/Programs/Linux/2.6.23.8/Resources/Unmanaged/System/Kernel/Modules/2.6.23.8-Gobo/extra/rt2500.ko

I added:

alias ra0 rt2500

Into modprobe.conf

and:
UserDefinedModules=(
   rt2500
)

to my boot options.

However when I boot, the kernel module is not loaded. And when I run

modprobe rt2500

FATAL: Module rt2500 not found.

However if I run
insmod /Programs/Linux/2.6.23.8/Resources/Unmanaged/System/Kernel/Modules/2.6.23.8-Gobo/extra/rt2500.ko

then it works (as one would expect).


Is my module installed in the wrong location? Or have I got an option
wrong somewhere?
