Re: [gentoo-user] What doesnt work with 2.6 ?

[Brett I. Holcomb]

Is this renaming something that the ebuild does?  And if so what happens 
when you go back to the 2.4 series - do the new tools work for that or 
do you have to rename them again?

Do you have up-to-date module-init-tools? Module loading will otherwise 
fail. The old tools (modprobe, insmod, rmmod, lsmod) must be renamed to 
xxx.old because they will be invoked when booting pre-2.6. Also, some 
modules have been renamed, so you will have to provide an adjusted 
/etc/modprobe.conf. Best check /var/log/messages to see *what* exactly 
fails (for me it was e.g. psmouse which was previously called mousedev).
