Hi there,

You may be trying to load a kernel module compiled for the wrong CPU architecture. Even if it were to load successfully though, using kernel modules not designed for the specific kernel build you're running can cause serious malfunctions ... be careful!

What are the module's target architecture and kernel version? How do they compare to what you have?
