You need to do this; (Note: make a backup if you want to be 100% sure you
don't do anything wrong)
Boot your new kernel (Yes you will get some module errors) and login as root;
rm -rf /lib/modules/2.2.15-2/* # Remove all old module entries
cd /usr/src/linux # Go to the source location
make modules_install # Install the current modules
depmod -a # make a new modules.dep file (Which is
what is causing the problems)
Reboot and you should have no errors about modules.
