Hi Kalle!
No. Insmod requires the full pathname (or current directory), a la "insmod /lib/modules/2.4.2/kernel/net/irda.o". Modprobe wants the file to be found in the correct /lib/modules place and requires the argument without the .o a la "modprobe irda". Confusing? Yes...
Hmm, please explain why "insmod lp" writes the following line on my system: "Using /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/lp.o" lsmod shows that the module is loaded. Dirk (confused)
