Re: Something wrong with potato modutils



I have the same problem. I upgraded my potato machine yesterday. I had a bunch of unresolved symbols. I did a update-modules. Now my machine is complaining about /etc/modules.conf being older than /lib/modules/2.2.5/modules.dep. Somehow, the depmod -a from init.d script seems to be not writing the modules.dep. When I run depmod -a manually, the modules.dep gets created. Next time, I boot, there is a old modules.dep in my /lib/modules.

Any clues.

Regards,
Vaidhy
