Knoppix 7.0.3 CD & DVD now on mirrors

The module file can be edited manually. I have done before, after editing the module using vi, if the length of string remains, the module can be loaded. Or perhaps insmod has a force option to forcefully load a module.

Perhaps can try this :-

# sed -i -e 's/GCC: (Debian 4.7.1-2) 4.7.1/GCC: (Debian 4.7.1-1) 4.7.0/g' oprofile.ko

Might be faster than other methods.

Nice trick but the module still does not load because of Unknown symbols.
I may have to overlay the kernel and all the modules ...

Too bad then, I think other things are probably changed too. Maybe can still try modprobe -f.

Hi kl522,
Nope: # depmod; modprobe -f oprofile ==> ERROR: could not insert 'oprofile': Exec format error
Thanks for your help !
