Subject: Q: use of new modules in old kernel
Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2002 10:02:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020219090253.CD89D67ED@penelope.materna.de> (raw)
Hi,
how is it possible to use modules of newer kernels in an old kernel
system?
To use new drivers, we want not recompile the kernel.
I tried to load the module 8139too from 2.4.17 into a 2.4.9 kernel with
modprobe, but there are many unresolved symbols.
The flag "Set version information on all module symbols" is set.
TIA for all information, hyperlinks are welcome too,
Tobias
