RE: [Re: Problems with depmod]



Title: RE: [Re: [linux-delhi] Problems with depmod]

If you recompiled your Kernel, and removed some modules then you would get this "unresolved symbols "error.

Thing is when u recompile a new kernel and do a "make modules" followed by a make "modules_install". the new module just get added to the directory where the  Linux kernel stores all the modules ( I forgot the directory name, you can find the name of the directory by looking at the last "leaving directory...." after the make modules_install.) The existing modules do not get deleted which cause the "unresolved symbols" to appear.

The workaround for this is...  Delete all the content in the modules directory, and then do a make modules, make modules_install.

This will take care off the "Unresoved symbols" error.
