You must be running a kernel for which the module is not compatible
(2.0.30 is known to behave like this). 

Simple solution: download the src rpm and rebuild it.  If that is a
problem let me know.  I'd be happy to run 2.0.30 kernels myself if those
are the most popular ones out there; then I could easily compile. What do
you think?

Clearly it's impossible to compile for every possible kernel, but I can
try to be helpful.
