Run a make clean on the kernel source tree and then a make && make modules_install and see what happens. Perhaps that will solve it. -MikeOn 8/2/05, James Hiscock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Sounds like a forgotten "make mrproper" or "make> > clean" before a full> > build?>> Aren't they for 2.4

Sounds like a forgotten "make mrproper" or "make clean" before a full build? I'm sure the kernel isn't making this stuff up. :D On Tue, 2 Aug 2005, maxim wexler wrote: Module unloading support is optional. You want to enable it in your kernel config. See the start of this thread. It *is*
