Problem while loading custom tty driver...

 I am trying to write a tty driver....
 So as usual I tried compiling driver that I got from Linux
 Device Driver Book.. 
 I've attached the same file here...
 My problem is..when I try to load this module I get this
 error.
 
 kobject_add failed for ttty3 with -EEXIST, don't try to
 register things with the same name in the same directory.

  =======================
 Tiny TTY driver v2.0
 
 
 And strange thing is.. I can see it in lsmod.
 I also like to know that how can I test my tty driver...?
 Is it the case that once we load tty driver..all console
 get to use it..?
