Hi group, |

3 |
This should be an easy fix -- if you already know! |
4 |
|
5 |
The reason many of my modules are not loading is |
6 |
because modprobe is looking in /lib/modules/2.6.12-r6 |
7 |
and not /lib/modules/2.6.16-r3 which was filled when I |
8 |
ran make modules_install. |
9 |
|
10 |
The link to the newer kernel is OK. |
11 |
|
12 |
Yes, I ran modules-update. |
13 |
|
14 |
Also, module loading and unloading options are set=y |
15 |
in kernel. |
16 |
|
17 |
Not a clue as to why some modules load, sound, usb; |
18 |
and some, firewire, ppp, forcedeth don't. |
19 |
|
20 |
dmesg is filled with lines like: |
21 |
|
22 |
Unknown symbol < >...disagrees about version of |
23 |
symbol< > ... |
24 |
|
25 |
At the end of the boot console it says: |
26 |
|
27 |
/usr/sbin/pppd/: Couldn't stat /dev/ttyS0: Too many |
28 |
levels of symbolic links. |
29 |
|
30 |
But according to emerge -pv udev I have the latest |
31 |
ver. Which I set up according to the gentoo |
32 |
udev-guide. |
33 |
|
34 |
Attempts to specify the proper dir to modprobe result |
35 |
in no-such-file errors. |
