uname shows Linux kernel version
can any one tell me why this strange problem happens??
When I try to start any modules using modprobe this basically finding the module in 3.1.9+ folder but it does not exist.
I had cross compiled the kernel with a old arm tool-chain named arm-2010q1-202-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2. I also copy those shared libs and include files in to my rootfs. Is this problem occurring for that???
I just get puzzled in that... Can any one find any possibilities for this behavior!!!
Thank you for help

I think the kerenl which you have installed has its kerenel version no as 3.1.9+ , I have seen this earlier . I dont know exactly where in the kernel source you can find this , but I think you can find it by greping it in your kernel sources.

No I dont think that is the troube, the point you are mentioned comes into play when you want to build modules and inser them against a kernel for which these modules were not built .Suppose you a build a module agains 3.1.9 and want to inser that module in 3.1.7 it will give some errors , but this is not a compiler issue.
Can you build some kerenl 2.6.x and try the uname command again . Download kernels from kerenel.org
