Well just discovered some more things, ran the modinfo on the file sarge:~# modinfo /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/alsa-kernel/pci/ens1370.c /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/alsa-kernel/pci/ens1370.c: /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/alsa-kernel/pci/ens1370.c is not an ELF file Well not sure how modinfo is supposed to work, so try again :-) sarge:~# modinfo /lib/modules/2.4.25-1-386/kernel/drivers/sound/es1370.o filename: /lib/modules/2.4.25-1-386/kernel/drivers/sound/es1370.o description: "ES1370 AudioPCI Driver" author: "Thomas M.
