SMGL can't connect to the net {Solved}

**budman7** · 03-07-2006

I was just testing out Sourcemage 0.9.4 and I can not connect to the net with it anymore.
It did work just fine right after the initial boot.
I managed to compile xorg and kde.
When I booted into SMGL again, I could not get online, I was told that I had

Code:

invalid module format

After trying to insert the 8139too module for my Realtek 8139 card.
So, I checked my kernel config just to make sure that I had compiled it as a module, and it was compiled as a module.
This is the contents of the folder that it looks into for the loading of the module.

Code:

8139cp.ko   bonding   eql.ko       sb1000.ko
8139too.ko  dummy.ko  ethertap.ko  tun.ko

Not sure why the .ko is on the end though.

Edit: this is the full error message after modprobe 8139too.

Code:

modprobe 8139too
8139too: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module
FATAL: Error inserting 8139too
(lib/modules/2.6.11.8/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.ko) Invalid module
format

A reinstall solved the problem.
Seems strange, but it looks as if I can't tell it to use the 8139too driver, but, I have to just let it find it on its own.
This is the contents of the /etc/sysconfig/network.eth0.dev

Code:

MODULE=
MODE=dynamic
IP=
BROADCAST=
NETMASK=
GATEWAY=
POINTOPOINT=
MTU=
UP_ON_BOOT=yes

Normally I would put 8139too in the module line after making sure that it was compiled as a module.
