Re: 2.6.14 kernel woes

Here is a snipet from a logcheck booting this goody:

Nov 27 17:18:38 d_baron kernel: Inspecting /boot/System.map-2.6.14-2-686-smp
Nov 27 17:18:38 d_baron kernel: Loaded 21450 symbols from /boot/System.map-2.6.14-2-686-smp.
Nov 27 17:18:38 d_baron kernel: Symbols match kernel version 2.6.14.
Nov 27 17:18:38 d_baron kernel: No module symbols loaded - kernel modules not enabled.

Something strange going on here. So stuff like alsa, direct rendering, etc., do not work.

Here is another--trying to load realtime-lsm, compiled against this kernel's source:

Nov 27 17:18:43 d_baron kernel: Failure registering capabilities with primary security module. Nov 27 17:18:43 d_baron kernel: Realtime: is kernel configured with CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=m?

OK.

This is a stock kernel off Sid. All this stuff used to work. Bug? Fix? Wait for 2.6.15?
I have been running 2.6.14-1 for a bit with no major problems.

BUT the latest kernel updates to 2.6.14-2+ all have major problems for me too.

I now get /var/log/boot messages like
---------------------------------

----------------------------------

and my Intel e1000 will no longer initialize.
Previously, I got /var/log/boot messages like:
----------------------------------
Sun Nov 27 08:07:17 2005: ^[[33m*^[[39;49m /etc/network/options is deprecated. Sun Nov 27 08:07:17 2005: Setting up IP spoofing protection...done (rp_filter).
Sun Nov 27 08:07:17 2005: Configuring network interfaces...done.
---------------------------------

and messages in /var/log/messsage showing the e1000 successful startup.

This began with the first update to 2.6.14-2. I waited for updates but the problem continues with the most recent updates.

This is with the stock unstable kernels; IE I am not (re)building my own kernels or anything.

Any insight/help appreciated.
