I have OpenLinux installed with 2.2.14 kernel, and need to upgrade to 2.2.16 (to use mwave patch distributed for Thinkpads by IBM). After much pain, I can get 2.2.16 kernel compiled and installed, but although I follow all the directions (including NHF), I can't get module symbols recognized. System message log shows that 2.2.16 symbols loaded, but no module symbols. I have done the make mrproper/oldconfig/dep/bzImage/modules/modules_install sequence without any obvious errors. Arghh!

Did you put your module(s) into /etc/conf.modules or /etc/modules.conf (depends on distro etc...)

alias eth0 3c90x
alias sound-slot-0 es1371

(My /etc/modules.conf)

Try depmod -a or depmod -a -q -v to see all the mods.Hope this helps.
