2.6 uses ".ko" as the module extension. You have to rebuild ALSA every time you compile a new version of the kernel. Alsa is in the 2.6.X kernels, so I tend to prefer that version to building it from source every time. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of tony seth Sent: Saturday, April 01, 2006 2:53 AM To: speakup at braille.uwo.ca Subject: Re: kernel build issue While we're on the jubject, I have a kernel question too. I'm currently running slackware 10.1 and a 2.4 kernel. I rolled my own 2.6 kernel, and although it mostly went as it should, all my modules seem to have a .ko extention rather then the .o extention, and so, for example when my sound card loads I get an error that the version is incorrect. How do I fix this, I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, or forgetting something obvious, but can't think what it is... I tried it before and got everything to work before, but don't know I did differently. Any help appreciated... thanks much. Cheereo! -- Email services by FreedomBox.
