Hi, I have a rather strange problem currently. I am trying to load a module with some parameters (bnx2x with disable_tpa=1) and it fails because this parameter is unknown according to dmesg. But modinfo lists this exact paramter and it is also included in the source. And while this is not an in-tree driver, I could also replicate the same behavior with in-tree device drivers (like bonding with the parameter tx_queues): $ modprobe bonding # works fine $ rmmod bonding $ modprobe bonding tx_queues=32 modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'bonding': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg) and dmesg tells me: bonding: Unknown parameter `tx_queues' and nothing else (as with bnx2x, this parameter is listed by modinfo). Is there some obvious kernel-config-option I could have messed up or something else like this? I am using a Gentoo-Userspace kmod (v15) with a Ubuntu-Kernel (3.8.13.13 - this is a version with some ubuntu-patches applied) - I know, the combination is rather strange. Any ideas? best regards, - Benjamin
