First, I can not locate my Linux Kernel Source
I have issued the insmod command, but I am not sure how to recompile the kernel.
Thanks for any help offered!

Once Again, Correct me if i'm wrong:
For RedHat, you can use the user interfaced command : kernelcfg, which allows you to load and unload modules manually.
these commands should help :
lsmod -- Lists modules currently loaded
insmod --Loads a module into the kernel
rmmod --Unloads a module currently loaded.
depmod --Creates a dependency file listing all other module
on which the specified module may rely.
modprobe --Loads a module with any dependent modules it may
also need. Ueses the file of dependency listings
generated by depmod.
Your modules are located in the
/lib/modules/version , where version = modules version.
Hope i helped.
