This may be your solution: Remove al *_MODULES files (recursively) from /lib/modules/<kernelversion> This should get depmod going again. Get a newer kernel-package if you want to compile another kernel with kernel-package. Newer versions won't put non-modules in /lib/modules/* Joost -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
