Modprobe Error

modprobe modprobe adds and removes modules from the Linux kernel. Overview Modules are pieces of code which extend the functionality of the operating system kernel without the need to reboot. Once loaded, modules

It performs the actual insertion and removal using the lower-level programs insmod and rmmod, respectively. While it's possible to call insmod and rmmod manually, it's recommended to load and

unload modules using depmod to ensure that any inter-module depenencies are considered before changes are made. Technical Description modprobe searches the module directory, /lib/modules/`uname -r` for all the modules and other files, except for the optional configuration files in the /etc/modprobe.d directory. modprobe will also use module options specified on the kernel command line in the form of:
Depmod No Such File Or Directory
modprobe (post-kernel version 2.4.x) do not modify modules themselves. The work of resolving symbols and understanding parameters is done inside the kernel. Module failure is therefore sometimes accompanied by a kernel message — see dmesg for more information about viewing them. modprobe expects an up-to-date modules.dep.bin file (or fallback human readable modules.dep file), as generated by the depmod utility. This file lists what other modules each module needs (if any), and modprobe uses this to add or remove these dependencies automatically. If any arguments are given after the modulename, they are passed to the kernel (in addition to any options listed in the configuration file). modprobe syntax modprobe [-v] [-V] [-C config-file] [-n] [-i] [-q] [-b] [modulename] [module parameters...] modprobe [-r] [-v] [-n] [-i] [modulename...] modprobe [-c] modprobe [--dump-modversions] [filename] Options -a, --all Insert all module names on the command line. -b, --use-blacklist This option causes modprobe to apply the blacklist commands in the configuration files (if any) to module names as well. (Any module which has been blacklisted will not be automatically loaded.) -C, --config This option overrides the default configuration directory (/etc/modprobe.d).

After my latest system-update on my UbuntuGnome 15.04 (dist-update) I tried to rebuild the driver from this repository like I have been could not open doing for a while now with out any issue. My process being so: make clean make sudo make install sudo modprobe 8812au The issue comes in the end, were I get a error when trying to enable the the driver with modprobe. modprobe: ERROR: could not insert '8812au': Exec format error I’ve posted a thread on Ubuntu forums as well http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2292112 Collaborator harshavardhana commented Aug 25, 2015 modprobe: ERROR: could not insert '8812au': Exec format error Doesn't seem to happen to me Building modules, stage 2.

My network controller is Broadcom BCM43142, and I use the broadcom-wl-dkms package. Just now, I performed the latest upgrade. After doing so, I couldn't modprobe wl. I would get this error:modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wl': Exec format errorEven after reinstalling broadcom-wl-dkms, I'm getting the same error on modprobing wl. My wifi used to work perfectly so far. Any fixes?
