I've began to work on a Kernel modules for the A500.

USB-SERIAL-WWAN(needed by the 3g driver)
nls_utf8

Tested CIFS and OPTION and working (:

can't insmod cifs.ko getting a exec format error
is there a dependency missed?

no mine works fine..... what does it say in dmesg?

edit: do you have the 3g model?

Thanks thor2002ro, cifs.ko work grate on my A500.

But have one problem on utf8. When i mount with "iocharset=utf8" show below error:
failed: Can not access a needed shared library

I think need another utf8 module?

Thanks again.

I'm having the same issue.

I copied cifs.ko to the tablet. Used root explorer to move it to the existing /system/lib/modules directory. Then:

adb shell
#su
#insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
insmod: init_module '/system/lib/modules/cifs.ko' failed (Exec format error)

dmesg has...
<3>[ 2235.293898] cifs: version magic '2.6.36.3-00001-gf991e5d SMP preempt mod_unload ARMv7 ' should be '2.6.36.3-00001-g9b3ce2b SMP
preempt mod_unload ARMv7 '
<3>[ 2422.009026] cifs: version magic '2.6.36.3-00001-gf991e5d SMP preempt mod_unload ARMv7 ' should be '2.6.36.3-00001-g9b3ce2b SMP
preempt mod_unload ARMv7 '

And I have the US version... Product SKU 3G, Model ID A501.

tun.ko not working ?

Thanks for theses modules but I tried the tun.ko but I get an error :

$ su
su
# insmod /sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko
insmod /sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko
insmod: init_module '/sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko' failed (Exec format error)
