net-pf-5 is the appeltalk module, adding;
alias net-pf-5 off
To your /etc/conf.modules should stop modprobe complaning.
On another note, yesterday evening i was chatting to a Unix guru (also a
good friend of mine), he said he was having problems with slackware 3.6 and
modules, he also uses 2.0.xx kernels, he reported the same sort of problems
which have been discussed here eariler, we came to the conclustion that
quite possably the cause of the "cant find modules" and some other problems
"may" be because newer distributions install 2.1.x-modutils. In the
/usr/src/linuc/Documentation/Changes file it states modutils 2.0.0 for
2.0.xx kernels.
My friend will try an older version of modutils as soon as he gets time.
When he lets me know the results i will inform you all about his findings.
At the moment its pure speculation as to that being the cause.
