What does this mean?

[armando86]

I'm trying to load a module into my kernel and I keep getting this message ;"error unresolvd symbols" I can't remember the exact message but it's more or less that. What does this mean and how can I fix it? Thanks!

Sounds like your trying to install the ltmodem driver. And, you're only seeing the bottom part of the message. Scroll up and you will probably see why the symbols are unresolved, such as "kernel mismatch"
Look at statius's post today under Lucent Winmodem...it's just up a few posts.

I guess i should've been more specific, I'm trying to load the kaweth USB ethernet adapter driver. I've already compiled it and when I type "modprobe kaweth" it gives me a screenful of unresolved errors. If it helps here they are:
