/lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc - shouldn't this be a directory?

Hey,

I can't seem to install the standalone imon_vfd drivers from http:// venky.ws:

# make install
depmod
/usr/bin/install imon_vfd.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc

Following that:
# modprobe imon_vfd
FATAL: Module imon_vfd not found.

By my logic, shouldn't the install process have effectively copied the imon_vfd driver to a directory called misc within my running kernel?

Here's what stat says:

# stat /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc
  File: `/lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2122_FC5smp/misc'
Size: 139196 Blocks: 280 IO Block: 4096 regular file
Device: 304h/772d       Inode: 28935873    Links: 1

Change: 2006-06-04 19:32:39.000000000 +0100

It's an executable file! Is that right??

# yum list installed | grep kernel
kernel-smp.i686 2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 installed kernel-smp.i686 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 installed kernel-smp-devel.i686 2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 installed

Thanks!

Ben
