Re: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than modules.dep ???
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.

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 > more > recent . On the next boot something reverses the situation again . That sounds weird. I don't understand it either, nor seen it before. Cheers, Joost

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 hth, kent -- From seeing and seeing the seeing has become so exhausted First line of "The Panther" - R.
