OK you sent me the info which is -
-rw-rw-rw-1 root  root 6122 Jun 23 20:31 /etc/modules.conf
-rw-r--r--1 root  root 10489 Jun 23 15:32 /lib/modules/2.4.5/modules.dep

This confirms what I was thinking.  The time-stamp on 
/lib/modules/2.4.5/modules.dep is changed on boot.  You want to change
the time-stamp on /etc/modules.conf instead.  Set it so the date is
behind (or older than) that of /lib/modules/2.4.5/modules.dep
That worked for me anyway -
-rw-r--r--1 root root 1552 Jun 13 21:41 /lib/modules/2.4.4/modules.dep
-rw-r--r--1 root root 3486 Apr  1 03:00 /etc/modules.conf

Try it again, with depmod -a and see if that changes it for the better.

Did you use update-modules to generate /etc/modules.conf from all the files
under /etc/modultils/ ?

 Any ideas what may be going wrong. Note - if I touch modules.dep to make it

That sounds weird.  I don't understand it either, nor seen it before.

I remember I had a similar problem, but I don't think it was serious.

I think it was caused by the system clock being converted from GMT to local
time after modprobe checks the timestamps on those files.  I fixed my
problem by touching /etc/module.conf back a few hours.  I think your problem
will dissapear in a few hours.

hi,
I keep getting the following error message at boot time:

modprobe: Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than 
/lib/modules/2.4.5/modules.dep

On other occasions it is insmod that issues the message. I have had this 
problem since kernel 2.2.17. I am presently running kernel 2.4.5 compiled by 
myself 
using the debian kernel package tools (make-kpkg). I have also tried things

This has not caused any program to fail as yet but it is still a nagging messg.
