Modprobe error

[RituRaj <ritu_turu@yahoo.com>]

I have compiled a customised 2.4.29 kernel. I am able
to boot into the new kernel. For some reason i want to
do a modprobe on ips.o But it is not working.

modprobe ips
/lib/modules/2.4.29-grsec-custom1/kernel/drivers/scsi/ips.o:
init_module: No such device
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
/lib/modules/2.4.29-grsec-custom1/kernel/drivers/scsi/ips.o:
insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.29-grsec-custom1/kernel/drivers/scsi/ips.o
failed
/lib/modules/2.4.29-grsec-custom1/kernel/drivers/scsi/ips.o:
insmod ips failed


I am testing this on a test machine which does not
have the SmartArray IBM adapter(for which ips.o is the
driver). So my question is does the modprobe/insmod
give error while loading a driver if it doesnt find
the  required device id? or is it something else?
