Found the problem.

Visited a fellow South African CNC club member , Henk Du Preez.
He compiled carousel.comp from my USB stick - > did not compile
Downloaded file from the net, straight on his machine -> everything went OKI DOKI

Long story short -> I previously installed Google within Iceweasel search engine, because Google is familiar to me.

When I used the Iceweasel search bar instead and downloaded carousel.comp -> compiled ==> :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Good day all

Looks like my problems are far from over

adding to hal file and loading linuxcnc
loadrt carousel pockets=4 ==> no problem

as soon as I add
addf carousel servo-thread ==> file not found

Checked that file carousel.ko is where it is supposed to be -- yes it's there with its mates
note: I did not compile within the proper linuxcnc folder at first.
I noticed that the ____.ko are root files and can't be deleted or overwriten???

If you are unclear about function (or pin or parameter) names you can always load the comp and "show" the function(s) (or pins or parameters) that the comp exports
for example:

halcmd loadrt carousel
halcmd show function
