Just a general note: better use modprobe module instead of insmod
module.o. modprobe makes use of the modules.dep dependencies file and
will autload other needed modules automagically while insmod just
straight tries to load the kernel module. It might avoid unresolved
symbol errors because missing other modules to be loaded.
