I'm about out of my league with this. Just a couple of days experience |
| 15 |
with genkernel before switching to menuconfig... |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Just a few things to check. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
dmesg |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
recent logs in /var/log |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Look in /lib/modules. You should see some kernel directories. Ex: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
royw-gentoo etc # ls /lib/modules/ |
| 26 |
2.4.28 2.6.11-gentoo-r11 2.6.11-gentoo-r4 2.6.11-gentoo-r9 |
| 27 |
2.6.12-gentoo-r10 2.6.13-gentoo-r3 |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Then look in the problem kernel's directory. Ex: |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
royw-gentoo etc # ls /lib/modules/2.6.12-gentoo-r10/ |
| 32 |
CiscoVPN kernel modules.alias modules.dep |
| 33 |
modules.inputmap modules.pcimap modules.usbmap video |
| 34 |
build misc modules.ccwmap modules.ieee1394map |
| 35 |
modules.isapnpmap modules.symbols source |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Then you can dig down into kernel/* looking for *.ko files. Ex: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
royw-gentoo etc # find /lib/modules/2.6.12-gentoo-r10/kernel -name |
| 40 |
"*.ko" -print |
| 41 |
/lib/modules/2.6.12-gentoo-r10/kernel/drivers/acpi/video.ko |
| 42 |
/lib/modules/2.6.12-gentoo-r10/kernel/drivers/base/firmware_class.ko |
| 43 |
/lib/modules/2.6.12-gentoo-r10/kernel/drivers/block/pktcdvd.ko |
| 44 |
... |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
This should give you a warm fuzzy that the modules were built... |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
If all that's there, then look at the modules configs in /etc. Ex: |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
royw-gentoo etc # ls -d /etc/modules* |
| 51 |
/etc/modules.autoload.d /etc/modules.conf /etc/modules.conf.old |
| 52 |
/etc/modules.d /etc/modules.devfs |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
/etc/modules.d contains individual module config files. modules-update |
| 55 |
will merge these into |
| 56 |
/etc/modules.conf. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
That's about the sum of my knowledge here... |
