I could not get past the unresolved symbol errors even with "make clean; make dep; make bzImage", etc.
I found this post: http://lists.osdl.org/pipermail/bridge/2004-March/000200.html. The recommendation was to use "make mrproper" (BUT first save your .config file somewhere safe!!). This approach worked for me and the bridge.o module loads without complaint.
Good luck, Bob Dingman

Hello, I want to add wireless capability to my Gentoo-linux based firewall/router at home, so I bought a Netgear MA311 PCI and installed the hostap package. I load the hostap_pci module and the wlan0 interface comes up fine. I can detect the signal from a wireless enabled laptop.
Now I'm thinking I'm going to bridge the wlan0 interface and the eth1 interface, and run the firewall with br0 as the internal interface. I compiled the kernel (2.4.23) with CONFIG_BRIDGE=m but when I modprobe bridge, I get this stuff:
/lib/modules/2.4.23-ck1/kernel/net/bridge/bridge.o: unresolved symbol br_ioctl_hook /lib/modules/2.4.23-ck1/kernel/net/bridge/bridge.o: unresolved symbol br_handle_frame_hook /lib/modules/2.4.23-ck1/kernel/net/bridge/bridge.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.23-ck1/kernel/net/bridge/bridge.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.23-ck1/kernel/net/bridge/bridge.o: insmod bridge failed
I can't figure it out. Do I need to patch the kernel? (I thought 2.4.21 and beyond needed no patches.) Do I need to configure something else?
Thanks in advance.
