@mkubecek & all ,

Some where in that other system is definately something wrong with the kernel build environment .

This newly installed system had no problems installing ,  compiling the moduiles ,  & running .

I'd have to say that anyone seeing difficuties like those here ,   Check if somehow you've created a 32bit build environment .

I'll probably be replying again when I find out what the culprit is exactly & how to correct it ,  so people can move forward without reinstalling .
