I got "Invalid Module format" error while using insmod command. Later i understand that the file is compiled in previous version of Linux. But, currently i don't have the source files to recompile in new version of Linux. I have tried with -f option. Still, It is not working. Is there any other way to solve this problem.
I am still new to porting wifi drivers. I am currently porting Ralink RT5370 driver, no problem with the compilation but when I execute insmod operation I got a lot of errors regarding RTMP. This is a part of the error I got:
rt5370sta: Unknown symbol rausb_buffer_free rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpOsFreeSpinLock rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpOsPktHeadBufExtend rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpOSTaskNotifyToExit rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpOsGetNetDevName rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpOsHtonl rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpOsAtomicInterlockedExchange rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpUtilInit rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpOSTaskInit rt5370sta: Unknown symbol RtmpOsAtomicInit
insmod: can't insert '/home/rt5370sta.ko': unknown symbol in module or invalid parameter Based on the some forum that I've read, adding the MODULE_LICENSE("GPL") is one of the solution. I did add it inside usb_main_dev.c and recompile but I still get the same errors.
I was trying to compile and insert a module. The module compiles fine and creates tool.ko file(am compiling it from Desktop). Next when I try to use "insmod tool.ko" , it gives em this error: insmod: error inserting 'tool.ko': -1 Operation not permitted.I tried to use modprobe instead , thinking it might install the dependencies(if any) by itself: "modprobe -v tool.ko" but it gives me this error FATAL: Module tool.ko not found
I went over some linux forum posts and tried to resolve it but no use.I copied all the files from Desktop to the /lib/modules/2.6.34.7-0.7-Desktop/build folder and then ran the commands but still face the same problem. Used this "/sbin/depmod -a " thinking it might update the modeprob.conf file, but no use !
After a reboot, my PC just hang. It says "insmod : error inserting '/lib/raid456.ko : -1 File exists ..." then followed by a kernel panic. I have tried to boot using rescue mode but it couldn't find any Linux partition, thus no /mnt/sysimage was mounted. It left me at a shell and I'm stuck there.
I successfully built the sources for 64 bit linux drivers from [URL].... on the 64 bit F14 machine: Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.35.6-45.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Oct 18 23:57:44 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux and got wl.ko:

I have some problems with CentOS 5.4 and standard kernel 2.6.32.7, which I need for realtime extensions.With the solution in this thread: [URL] I could boot the new standard kernel , There are still two error messages during the boot process:
I'm new to openSUSE and as a matter of fact, to linux too. I've got a Linksys WUSB600N wireless adapter which used to work fine with some live versions of linux that I was testing out before moving onto suse... Each time, upon booting using live CDs, I used to copy the driver I had downloaded from:
Then 'make' and get into the driver's os/linux directory to load the driver using 'insmod rt2870sta.ko' Now, upon doing a 'make' and 'make install', followed by the 'insmod rt2870sta.ko', I get the error saying:
insmod: error inserting 'rt2870sta.ko': -1 Invalid module format
I tried doing 'modprobe -rv rt2870sta' and didn't get any error messages. But while doing 'modprobe -v', this error shows up: insmod /lib/modules/2.6.27.7-9-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2870sta.ko FATAL: Error inserting rt2870sta (/lib/modules/2.6.27.7-9-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2870sta.ko): Invalid module format
I am using a windriver Linux. I have built the I2c-core, i2c-i801 and i2c-dev drivers and they are getting inserted while booting. After boot up, there are sysfs entries in /sys/class/i2c-dev/i2c-0 and /sys/bus/i2c/i2c-0. But there is no entry in /dev. In dmesg, it shows a line:
Quote: i2c /dev entries driver. But it does not creates any entry in /dev.
I'm trying to install an open source driver BADDRV on Suse 11, x64 system.What I have done:installed kernel source. make. insmod ./BADDRV.ko.On Redhat 5, this just works and I can run the user program that calls open(/dev/BADDRV) and its ioctls.On Suse 11 there is no entry in /dev so I add mknod /dev/BADDRV c 0 0.The user open(/dev/BADDRV) fails with errno 6.(I also tried mknod /dev/BADDRV c 244 0, per suggestion of dmesg. No difference.)There is an rpm provided with the driver. Installing the rpm on Suse 11 works and then the user program works. The only problem with the rpm is that it requires kernel source to be installed, which I can't ask of my customer base.
I am trying to install a third party driver and the provided makefile makes a call to insmod. Whenever I try to install this I run "su", so I am root and should have permissions. However, when I run "make install" I get the following output:
Code: # make install Unloading any instances of foo module Loading new foo into running kernel insmod: error inserting 'foo.ko': -1 Operation not permitted make: *** [install] Error 1
Like I said before, I'm doing this as root, so I don't see how this is possible. Additionally, every time I try to do this it seems to cause a lot of damage to whatever kernel I'm currently booted in; USB and ethernet (and hence the Internet) stop working and I have to wipe the kernel and reinstall it.
i created a sample module and while trying to insert it i am getting the message "Killed". But when I did lsmod my module was listed out there and was 'Used by' 1. Maybe because it is in use I cannot do a rmmod on my module. How to overcome this, that is do a rmmod while it is still in use?
module loads successfully; another is using (CC) and then creating the module by "make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules", this module gives the error message when it is inserted, .........
I've been switching out computers to the Ubuntu distro and so far it's been very successful until this recent snag! As I am trying to have a printer plugged in through USB on one computer and shared on the other! I have the USB on the second computer and it found the printer just fine, no problems and nothing else I had to install! I then went to the first computer and tried to add the printer through the CUPS website using all the proper addresses and queue names and I receive CUPS "client-error-not-possible". I have read other threads on this very same problem but to be honest they just make no sense whatsoever to me! I was thinking of just giving up and using a print server but I know that I will run into the same snag as even then I still need CUPS.
I am quite new to Linux. Just some basic information, I am using windows xp but have installed vmwork station and am running Red Hat enterprise linux 4.
When i run ./configure it gives me this error. "configure: error: libnet >=1.1.2.1 not found "
I'm trying to sync a folder between my Windows install and my PCLinux install. Same machine, Windows 7 on the C drive and Linux on an external USB hard drive.
Using the Grsync GUI, I searched for the source and destination folders, and then executed the command. Here is the output:
I am having a problem installing SLES11 on a new server. It goes fine through the setup until it gets to GRUB, it gets me the following error message: Error occurred while installing GRUB

Ubuntu 9.10 was set up to handle the booting selection - previously I thought it was xp but Ubuntu 9.10 "did" it. The system started out as a xp / ubuntu 9.10 dual boot on a 400gb drive. xp has 210gb, ub has 80 and their is a 100gb shared storage. Xp was installed first and then I followed a guide over at linuxconfig.org to get ub installed so that I could select which OS was wanted at boot. Ubuntu manages the boot up menu (Went back to look at my notes from the original setup) The owner tried to update to ub 11.04 and afterall was said and done the machine now boots to the message
error file not found grub rescue I can't say if 11.04 was properly installed or not. Ask whatever you like and I'll give the best answer I can. I think the xp install is okay but I can't say for certain as I don't know how to boot it outside the bootmanager at startup. Data has been saved so if I have to blow it all away and start over I can but I'm hoping I won't have to.
GNU Emacs 23.1.1 I've noticed that if I run Emacs and M-x server-start, I can use the emacsclient program as usual, but if if I start Emacs using emacs --daemon and then try to use emacsclient the new frame locks up and the shell outputs *ERROR*: Arithmetic error. This issue doesn't happen if I use the -t flag to force terminal mode when running emacsclient.
I am trying to setup an HPC4400 printer attached to a Windows XP box on a Fedora-11 box with the latest updates and am getting the error " Cups server error Client-error-not-possible ". Using the Cups GUI on the fedora-11 box I can find the printer, I get verify that the shared printer exists but still get the message when I try to install it.
I hooked up an Hp deskjet portable to ubuntu and keep getting the above error when I finish installing the printer! How do I get by this? 10.04 LTS It's hooked up to LPT-1 port!
