Grepping the source tree on 6.2-RELEASE shows this message can only have com
from one place : sys/kern/kern_conf.c in the function prep_cdevsw() :
if (devsw->d_version != D_VERSION_01) {
printf(
"WARNING: Device driver \"%s\" has wrong version %s\n",
devsw->d_name == NULL ? "???" : devsw->d_name,
"and is disabled. Recompile KLD module.");
Looks like the kernel and the modules are out of sync.
