Mod probe: can't locate module char-major ....
Hi, I am new to Debian Linux - I just had it installed several days ago - when boot up I notice there are several messages Mod probe: can't locate module char-major , I recompile the kernel manually and this is what I set in the Native Lanague Support category Default NLS Option iso8859-1 Codepage 437 (United states, Canada) - Module NLS ISO 8859-1 (Latin; Wester European Langugages) - Module (trully speaking, I don't know what these are , a friend told me to turn them on so I did, if they are unnecessary or if there's something else should be on, let me know also) although it doesn't affect any booting process but I would like to know what they are and how to fix them. Thanks . -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks . It can be fixed by compiling the kernel with the appropriate module. If the message mentions char-major-10-135, it's looking for rtc.o (real time clock). When a kernel compiled with rtc as a module, then booted, the error would go away. -- Seneca [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Excuse me hijacking this thread. But I have this 10-135-problem, but instead of making rtc.o available to the kernel, I'd prefer to remove the call for it. Do you know which part of the init process is responsible for trying to access the rtc? Thanks joerg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Since I don't need the rtc, I just turn it off. Edit the file /etc/modutils/arch/i386 and replace the line: alias char-major-10-135 rtc with alias char-major-10-135 off and then run update-modules.
