Lawson explaned about redhat 5.2 making a symbolic link to the preferred
directory, if my memory serves me correct 5.2 does not link or do anthing in
the way of the System.map. The unresolved symbols usaly are the result of
modprobe/insmod looking into the wrong System.map.
One way around this is to delete de symbolic link in /boot to
System.map-2.x.x-xx the old link (if it is there) and link it to the one
which was created by the kernel compile of your presant kernel.
cd /boot
rm System.map # Make sure its a symlink first, if not do;
mv System.map System.map.OLD
ln -s /usr/src/linux/System.map System.map
depmod -a /lib/modules/`uname -r`
Now try to load the module using modprobe giving the absolute path to the
module.
There is of course no garante that the above will work.
