Ulrich,

Ok, I did my make mrproper, and the make dep is running now.  I'll post my
results after the make modules is done.  Go eat dinner or something, you're
working too late again from home.  :)

Yes, silly me, if the driver needs fsm, it's obviously 
Fritz's version :-/

Aha, the kernel was compiled with symbol versioning on ...

... but the module with symbol versioning off.  Therefore
the symbol names don't match (they are supposed to match
*exactly*, including the argument type mangling stuff 
appended by symbol versioning).

Now I have no idea why this would be the case; the build
process should build everything correctly (unless you've done
things like changing configure options between 'make image'
and 'make modules'?) ...

Sometimes the 2.4 build process gets confused; in that case
a complete rebuild starting with a 'make mrproper' will get
things in order again.

Bye,
Ulrich
