Module mic not found in Fedora 20

I'm trying to install MPSS on Fedora 20 but I get this error when run the command " modprobe mic":

modprobe: FATAL: Module mic not found

In some forums, it is stated that this problem occurs because the present version of the kernel version is not compatible with MPSS version but I have tried different versions of MPSS including MPSS-3.3.5, MPSS-3.4.5 and MPSS-3.5.1 and none of them works. My linux version is 3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64.

Does anybody has any idea?

Thank you

In the readme.txt file that comes with the MPSS, you will find a list of supported Linux kernels - kernels for which a precompiled copy of the mic kernel module is included. The list of supported kernels changes only slightly from release to release. If the kernel version you are running is not in that list, then you will need to recompile the mic kernel module. You will find the instructions for doing this in that readme.txt file. In the 3.5 release, you will find the directions at the end of section 2.1.

Is it too ambitious for MPSS to include automatic suggestions for rebuild, as sep drivers do?  It might usefully include a little more checking to see if certain prerequisites are present.
