Kevin, Prepare for Bjorn's suggested edit by: $ dkms status whose output on my System includes: agrsm-11c11040, 2.1.80, 2.6.31-17-generic, i686: installed Then do: $ sudo dkms remove -m agrsm-11c11040 -v 2.1.80 --all This cleans a copy of the code package from the /var/lib/dkms/ folders, wherein DKMS does the actual compiles Next to Bjorn's edit. Then reinstall with $ sudo ./dodkms MarvS MarvS On Tue, Feb 2, 2010 at 6:46 AM, Bjorn Wielens <Uniacke1@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hmm...
