This was the first symptom I had after my last update, too. Check to
see if your kernel can still see its modules, by lsmod. If nothing is
listed, you have the same problem. Your update updated the kernel
configuration to 2.6.21, but did not update the kernel itself. You need
to re-flash your new kernel. Instructions are on the WIKI.
