Try this patch against modutils 2.3.20. If it does not fix the problem
then I will need a copy of your modules.conf. `uname -r` should work
even without this patch, it does for me. You must have something
unusual in your modules.conf.

The problem is in modules.conf Most users do not use "depfile" and "path" commands So they have not seen this problem. Other have not read the man. As I have tested the new 2.4 kernel, and I wanted to be able to load and run modules, I have a big modules.conf using theese commands. The man for modules.conf says: DEFAULT CONFIGURATION depfile=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.dep pcimapfile=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.pcimap isapnpmapfile=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.isapnpmap usbmapfile=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.usbmap path[boot]=/lib/modules/boot path[toplevel]=/lib/modules/`uname -r` path[toplevel]=/lib/modules/`kernelversion` path[toplevel]=/lib/modules/default This was true for modutils-2.3.19, and older versions. With modutils-2.3.20 the syntax have changed. Anything in ChangeLog? `uname -r` has to be changed in $(uname -r)

Hmmm... let's see, on my Corporate Server 1.0 box I have modutils-2.3.20-1.2mdk installed and it works perfect. depmod -av gives me lots of output. On my Mandrake 7.2 box I have modutils-2.3.20-1.1mdk and it also works perfectly. So, yes, it has been tested on both versions of Mandrake (7.1 and 7.2) and they work fine. > > On both 7.1 and 7.2, /sbin/depmod -a runs > > fine and generates the new modules.* files without a problem.

I honestly can't say what your problem is... perhaps Chmouel will have an idea, but modutils works just fine for me here. On my corporate server box I am running kernel-2.2.16-9mdk and on my 7.2 box I am running 2.2.17-21mdk. Not sure if this makes a difference as far as modutils is concerned, but it might. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED], OpenPGP key available on www.keyserver.net 1024D/FE6F2AFD 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD - Danen Consulting Serviceswww.danen.net, www.freezer-burn.org - MandrakeSoft, Inc. www.linux-mandrake.com Current Linux uptime: 4 days 23 hours 53 minutes.

I have tested modutils-2.3.20-1.1mdk.i586.rpm from ftp.tu-clausthal.demodutils-2.3.20-1.1mdk.i586.rpm /pub/linux/mandrake/updates/7.2/RPMS/ and I have exactly the same: depmod -av does not output anything.

Why did you install the cooker modutils? There is an official update for 7.2 that works fine... On both 7.1 and 7.2, /sbin/depmod -a runs fine and generates the new modules.* files without a problem. I think because of the different compilers used, you blew your system using a cooker modutils instead of the 7.2 modutils MandrakeUpdate provides. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED], OpenPGP key available on www.keyserver.net 1024D/FE6F2AFD 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD - Danen Consulting Serviceswww.danen.net, www.freezer-burn.org - MandrakeSoft, Inc. www.linux-mandrake.com Current Linux uptime: 1 day 18 hours 24 minutes.
