Kernel Modules



Hi all,

I've asked related questions in the past without success.  So, I'll 
try one more time.  I'm just looking for a pointer to the correct 
place to resolve the difficulty.

I'm using the XFree86 experimental 4.2.1-0pre1v1 debs because my rage 
pro 128 is not supported by previous editions.  DRI will not enable 
because it needs a newer version of the r128.o module than is in the 
kernel.  The log says it needs version 2.2 or higher and 2.1.16 is in 
the kernel.  I'm using kernel-image-2.4.19-k7.

My questions:

How are kernel modules numbered?  Apparently they do not reflect the 
kernel-numbering system?

Since I am using the latest stable kernel where do I go to find a 
newer kernel module?

Is this even the right list to ask this question?  If not, a pointer 
to the right list would be helpful.

TIA
bob
