Your out-of-tree modules are still compiled against your old config. To fix this: 1) Correct your /usr/src/linux symlink, if needed, so that it points to the source tree of your running kernel. 2) Make sure the /usr/src/linux/.config file matches your running config. If you have no qualms about trampling the existing file this is easy enough to do with 'zcat /proc/config.gz > /usr/src/linux/.config'. 3) emerge module-rebuild 4) module-rebuild -X rebuild That should make sure the modules installed are appropriate for your running kernel. It could also be that your in-tree modules got compiled, but never installed over the old versions. If that's the case, follow steps 1 and 2 above, but then: 3) cd /usr/src/linux; make modules_install That will compile the modules against the current config (if necessary) and install them under /lib/modules/$(uname -r) where modprobe expects them to be. -- "If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability." -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh
