After allowing an upgrade of slink packages without watching too closely, I then discovered that the auto loading of modules (ppp,sound,vfat) fails for all modules. I can use insmod to *manually* load these modules (in dependency order) and everything works. The modules.dep file is correct (depmod -a doesn't help), it has the right dependencies and locations. I have done nothing to the kernel; no new kernel. I booted up this morning with everything working, connected to an ftp site with dselect, allowed it to upgrade about a dozen packages, and afterword all module loading is broken. Anybody seen this?
