[hsflinux] Re: "hsf driver not active" message

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

the modules were compiled with kernel headers that do not correspond to 
your running kernel. Try recompiling the modules with 'hsfconfig 
--kernel' and ensure that the source tree used corresponds to your 
running kernel.

Alternatively you may try to boot or install another kernel and its 
corresponding source/header files.
