To the best of my knowledge, SME never issued 2.6.9-78.0.1.EL.

The current kernel is kernel-smp-2.6.9-67.0.7.EL

and the one in smeupdates-testing is 2.6.9-78.0.5.EL

then you have updated your server enabling some CENTOS' repo..

that kernel is not current kernel for SME

anyway, install a dev machine, preferably CENTOS, with dev rpms and compile there the module you need.
