I should have also noted that this only happens on Leopard. There kext
has no problems loading after upgrading on 10.4.11.

I've got a KPI-based kernel extension that we're distributing to our

users recently reported seeing the following in the System.log:
Nov 24 15:59:23 Micks-Powerbook com.apple.SystemStarter[27]:
kextload: loaded version 27 of module com.mycompany.kext differs
from requested version 31
Nov 24 15:59:23 Micks-Powerbook com.apple.SystemStarter[27]:
kextload: a different version of /System/Library/Extensions/
MyKext.kext, or of one of its dependencies, is already loaded
As a consequence of this, our kext is not loaded. When I check the
plist of the kext in /System/Library/Extensions, the CFBundleVersion
is 31. That fact leads me to believe that the previous kext has been
cached somewhere. Can anyone point me at some relevant documentation
or explain what's going on?
