The "Invalid Module Format" error suggests the modules have not been compiled correctly for the current kernel for whatever reason. It's probably been said before, but double-check that you have the kernel sources installed for the currently running kernel. Kernel headers alone may not be sufficient. I have no experience with these drivers on 2.6.35, as my distro is not scheduled for a release until late spring. (I'm only on 2.6.34). Bjorn.
