Hi Neil
Try modinfo on the module. I guess that you didn't get any errors during
the build ? Also look in dmesg after the insmod. If you could post the
full error that may help. It's possible it's not an error from insmod
but from the module itself.
I have a development FC3 box here so I could try building a binary for
you if all else fails.
Cheers
Paul
