A newbee to Linux.

I had DRBD working fine but after doing some SuSE 9.1 updates one of the
machines now complains about:

Starting DRBD resources:        Version tags of drbdsetup and drbd kernel
module are not matching!
        API_VERSION: drbdsetup:75 -- drbd module:74
        Please check your installation!
        Version tags of drbdsetup and drbd kernel module are not matching!

version: 0.7-pre8 (api:74/proto:72)  That's on the computer that complains.
version: 0.7.2 (api:75/proto:74)  That's on the computer that still loads.

I tried to install 0.7.3 but had the same problems there on both computers.
During the make:

trying to make dep ...
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.108-obj/i386/default'
make[4]: *** No rule to make target `dep'.  Stop.
make[3]: *** [dep] Error 2
make[2]: *** [dep] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.108-obj/i386/default'
I'll ignore this error, but this can cause inconsistencies!

And during the make install:

ln -s ../etc/init.d/drbd /sbin/rcdrbd
ln: `/sbin/rcdrbd': File exists
make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/drbd-0.7.3/scripts'
make: *** [install] Error 2
silas:/usr/src/drbd-0.7.3 #

Any help would be appreciated.
-Neil.
