(Off-topic -- kernel-package isn't needed since you're compiling kernels
the "old" way or the "non-debian" way)

There's likely a module or modules that were in your stock kernel still
in /lib/modules/2.2.17. Running "make modules_install" just adds the
modules you compiled to that dir. It doesn't remove existing or obsolete
ones.

Do a "mv /lib/modules/2.2.17 /lib/modules/2.2.17-backup" and then re-run
"make modules_install".
