Hi,

First very-2 thanks to all of you. But one more question. Even if i blaclist this module and after linux boots, if i load module will it work means this card will be assigned address and interrupts by OS when we blacklist this module even?

Blacklinsting prevents a module from loading automatically, you can still attempt to load it after boot manually (modprobe [module]), but that's no guarentee it will not still lock up. In some cases, the OS might find an alternate module that works too (e.g., there's three for the Intel e100 Pro net card)... if you're really lucky.

Good luck!

Hi D-cat,

Very-2 thanks for supporting me. I have another question regarding the Module versions. In the previous version of linux if we compile our kernel with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS option, we have to include modversions.h file in each c file and then compile with option DMODVERSIONS.

I have the question in current ubuntu linux, i heard that modversions.h is not required. But if we compile our kernel CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, what should we do/enable in order to get our kernel module running?

Regards,

That part I have no clue. I'm not a kernel developer, nor do I build custom kernels. When the devs make a change like that, I'm probably more in the dark than you are as to what to do next. Sorry.
