Please, what is this insmod? Isn't that a unix command to install modules? Why doesn't it work? :S :S

you must be logged in as root to install module in kernel.

type 'ins' and press tab key. it will show you a list of commands starting with 'ins...'
in case, any of listed command throws 'command not found' error, it means you need 'root' access to execute that command.
