Thanks once again for your help Karl! I did what you suggested - make mrproper, make oldconfig, make dep - now I can build and install streams without error. I still have problems starting it however. This is funny... # insmod streams Using /lib/modules/2.4.20-18.7/misc/streams.o /lib/modules/2.4.20-18.7/misc/streams.o: kernel-module version mismatch /lib/modules/2.4.20-18.7/misc/streams.o was compiled for kernel version 2.4.20-18.7custom while this kernel is version 2.4.20-18.7. I don't totally understand this because we did not rebuild the actual kernel did we? Only the dependencies right? So did make assume we were going to also be building and running a custom kernel? I should probably remove and reinstall the kernel source rpm and start over to compile streams for the "non-custom" kernel. Does this sound like a reasonable plan? - Tom -- Tom Penney <blots at visi.com> _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
