Kernel Version problems!



Hello,
       I am trying to build a module.The compilation works fine,but
while loading the module I get the message" the kernel versionis 2.2.10
but the module was compiled on 2.2.5". Itried compiling with
-I/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.10/...... etc without any useful output. At
last I found out the culprit.The libc-dev package installs the
/usr/include/linux directory which contains a version.h file.It has a line
saying #define UTS_VERSION 2.2.5.I think this line is causing the problem.
But the same file in the kernel-headers-2.2.10 is written correctly.I can
always load the module using insmod -f.But how to solve this problem? Does
this mean a libc6-dev exists for every new kernel release?
