Hi,

did you tried with DriverLoader 2.20 and up? In DriverLoader 2.20, we 
have improved compatibility for many chipsets and it is possible that 
the crash issue has been fixed.

Please also make sure that you have compiled your 2.6.10 kernel without 
the following options enabled in your kernel :

---
CONFIG_PREEMPT
CONFIG_4KSTACKS
---

Alternatively, we have added the 2.6.10 kernel support in DriverLoader 
2.20 so you could find the difference between DriverLoader 2.11 and 2.20 
to see what we have changed to fix the unknown symbol issue. You can 
download these previous releases of DriverLoader at :
