Could you attach your /lib/modules/3.0mamba/modules.dep ? One thing you could try is to compile kmod with debug enabled (--enable-configure flag), and run modprobe like below: KMOD_LOG=8 modprobe -v squashfs Then send the log. Please, send also the output of "modinfo squashfs" (or "modinfo /lib/modules/3.0mamba/kernel/fs/squashfs/squashfs.ko" if it doesn't work). What's the output of "uname -r"? > > Sorry for directly writing to you but I could not find a more proper place to > report this.
