Thanks jpbarto for the pointers but still not working. Looks
like the module and driver in the downloads have different
versions. This is the relevent lines from my XFree86.0.log
file:

...

Germany"
compiled for 4.3.0, module version = 2.9.13

Module called exit() function with value=1

The driver version was 2.9.13 and the module that was
generated from the zip was 2.9.12. I'm guessing as the
error says that is the problem. I wonder if I can still get
2.9.12 drivers from Schneider? Or maybe I missed
something in the directions.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
