Difference between .o, .lo, and .mod.o

[Timur Tabi <timur.tabi@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've updated my makefile to build with the 2.6 kernel (i.e. kbuild), but 
after I run make, I end up with three files: driver.o, driver.ko, and 
driver.mod.o.  What are the differences between the these files?  And 
why does insmod only work on driver.mod.o?
