I am the maintainer of libguestfs in the AUR, and to run it uses insmod

load kernel modules into a specialized vm.
The problem I am running into is that insmod cannot load the new gz kernel modules, so I unzipped them all to see if that would solve the problem, but now insmod does not seem to load them in the correct order.
Does anyone know of a way to get insmod to load gzipped kernel modules? Or is there a way to install the latest kernel without gzipped modules?
-Thomas S Hatch You can rebuild the kernel from abs and edit the PKGBUILD to not gzip the modules
I was afraid that would be the only answer... unfortunately we just discovered that gzipped kernel mods breaks a large portion of our virtualization backend, because we use libguestfs. I will give it a try I am still open to ideas :)
