Help needed: precompiled kernel modules & old genksyms

[Andree Leidenfrost <leidenfrost@dkrz.de>]

After the upgrade from 1.2 to 1.3 a precompiled kernel module for
accessing AFS-volumes doesn't work anymore. I have mailed to the
linux-afs maling list and got the following answer:

> Downgrade to an older version of the module utility package (you need
> modutils 2.0) and recompile your kernel using the old genksyms

My question is now:

a) Do I really have to downgrade the modules package or can I just
change the kernel symbol table?

b) If so, how do I change the kernel symbol table?

c) If not, how do I savely downgrade without breaking something?
Actually, what do I have to downgrade, really?

Any help will receive tons of appreciation!

Regards,

	Andree
