that modules seems to be loadiing, as #5:

fac13ttyp1:hawk>kldstat
Id Refs Address    Size     Name
 1    6 0xc0100000 2e799c   kernel
 2    1 0xc1875000 7000     linprocfs.ko
 3    1 0xc18d9000 2000     rtc.ko
 4    2 0xc18dc000 15000    linux.ko
 5    1 0xc193b000 9000     vmmon_up.ko
 6    1 0xc1945000 4000     if_tap.ko


there is only one module, isn't there?
