Package: linux-latest-2.6
Version: 2.6.21+8

Hi!

Loading the ipv6 module with linux-image-2.6.21-2-alpha-smp version
2.6.21-6 still does not work:

es40-1:~# dmesg -c > /dev/null
es40-1:~# modprobe ipv6
FATAL: Error inserting ipv6
(/lib/modules/2.6.21-2-alpha-smp/kernel/net/ipv6/ipv6.ko): Invalid module format
es40-1:~# dmesg 
module ipv6: Relocation (type 17) overflow vs section 28

I haven't looked into the problem, at least not deeply, but
http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/1/11/42 might contain a missing fix.

MfG, JBG

linux-latest-2.6 is a source package, the version is wrong, the binaries
are empty, they can't produce any error.

Ah, there we are.
