I use Debian 2.1 with kernel 2.0.36. I baked a new kernel for use with my AWE64 Soundblaster. In the process it was adviced to rename /lib/modules/2.0.36 to /lib/modules/2.0.36-old before installing the new kernel package. After intstalling there was a new /lib/modules/2.0.36 directory, but essential files like ps2aux.o were missing, making me have to live without a mouse now.
Do I have to bake a new kernel now for these modules to be included and automatically activated, or can I still remedy the situation afterwards. Understand the kernel needs to trigger these modules, but how is that exactly done? With a initiating file maybe? I hope anybody can give some background apart from a workable solution. Have a nice weekend. Hans
