Sounds like you installed one kernel over another of the same version.
You can check your /etc/modules file for modules that may be being
autoloaded when you boot and comment ones that you don't need out. Also
man and run depmod. If that doesn't clear it up please include
/etc/modules and /etc/modules.conf in your reply.
