problem with insmod cmemk.ko

This is the first time we have seen a report of a problem such as this.  I don't see anything wrong with the 'insmod' command (I assume the trailing text after "pools=1x10" is not part of the insmod command).

The fact that you got that message tells me that the cmemk.ko module did not get the parameters passed to it correctly, and I don't know what sort of issue could cause that.  Perhaps a rebuild would help?  (while pointing to your kernel source tree).

Could you try running
    % modinfo cmemk.ko
and report the output here?  A normal, working cmemk.ko would show something similar to this:
root@arago:/ce-s06x# modinfo cmemk.ko
