Please do help me in this regard, thanks in advance.
What specific problem you are facing? you havn't mentioned about the
problem because this code looks fine to me and its same as example
code of the link you mentioned.

Hi Fawad ,
This is the error which i got when i tired to compile the code
hello-5.c , the same code which i mentioned to day morning,
[root in lkmpg-examples-2.6: 14:04:06]#make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.5-1.358/build M=/root/WORK/lkmpg-examples-2.6

`error: stray '\342' in program' has nothing to do with the program.
Looks to me like the program file is corrupted.
Do not know if it is actually. Why don't you try re-writing the same in
to another file and check?
Do not do a `cp' or a `ctrl+c & ctrl+v' or a `left click+mouse
drag+right click'. just type it out and check.
and AFAIK, the program does not seem to have any problem.

Hiran
and one more doubt in the code , i did not find <linux/moduleparam.h>
file in the source code and in the /usr/include/linux directory.
Instead of moduleparam.h file i found param.h file, can i include it ,
Thank you,
Badari.
