I have installed a new kernel to the RH server and try to boot into it , but it pop the below /var/log/messages , it seems can't find some hardware device , can suggest how to add it back ? thx


insmod: Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg


lp: driver loaded but no devices found

modprobe: Can't locate module

[Gopi Sekar]

insmod errors are mostly caused by invalid or wrong driver for a particular hardware. post the dmesg output along with /var/log/messages (as attachments) then it would be easier to debug the actual problem

lp: driver loaded but no devices found

it means there are no printers connected to the system which the linux can understand.

can't locate module error message comes up where the redhat tries to load a particular driver file which does not exist in the system.

Give us more information from /var/log/syslog or dmesg like ex:

login as root
# grep -B2 -A2 "invalid" /var/log/syslog
or
# dmesg | grep -B2 -A2 "invalid"

remplace the strings in the above command to more helpfull extract and adjust -B -A (Before and After to the meaningfull number of lignes)


this would help us help you
