David> Anyone have a clue on this? The modules for the kernel you are running are apparentl *not* installed. You get the unresolved symbol errors because the modules that are there do not correctly match the running kernel. Did you build the kernel yourself? If so, then go back to the kernel-source directory, and run: # make modules && make modules_install Make sure you remove that symlink you made *first*, then run the `depmod -a' again, and see if everything just works after that. -- I am karlheg of deB-ORG.
