insmod errors …

[G40]

Thanks for this. What an excellent idea. Just been doing some Windows driver work and the network support in VS2013 is super …

First tried the VisualKernel package installed in VS2013Pro then built the kgdboe.ko on the target machine, an old Dell netbook running Mint 17 with kernel 3.13.0-37.

In both cases insmod fails.

If I run  sudo insmod kgdboe.ko devicename=eth0 on the physical machine I get an ‘invalid parameters’ error.

Any clues. Does this need a newer kernel version or what?

Please run ‘dmesg | tail’ to see debug messages from the kernel. Are there any details regarding kgdboe issues? Have you tried following the manual kgdboe tutorial?

dmesg shows this:

netpoll: kgdboe: eth0 does not support polling. aborting.

currently running mint with the 3.16.0.34 kernel if that helps.

wonder if this is the reason: http://askubuntu.com/questions/139314/netconsole-error-eth0-doesnt-support-polling
