Hello, and thanks for any help you can provide. I'm running out of things to 
try...

I am running kdb under a Mandrake 10.0 (kernel version 2.6.3) with SMP enabled. 
KDB is the 4.3 version that comes with Mandrake 10.0. Architecture is 2.4GHz 
P4...

        I am trying to debug a kernel module I am porting from 2.4.18 to 
2.6.3... Everything with kdb runs fine except that none of the symbols from my 
module are being used to display PC's in stack traces, etc. I can't use symbols 
in commands either.

        I have compiled the kernel with CONFIG_KALLSYMS, and after insmod'ing 
the module I grep for them in /proc/kallsym and they are in there.. I thought 
kdb pulled symbols from /proc/kallsym, so having them in there would have been 
enough.. Is there another step I am missing?? I do have CONFIG_MODVERSIONS 
turned off, and because I have one or two deprecated items left I cannot rmmod 
the module.. The deprecated macros are:
MOD_INC_USE_COUNT and MOD_DEC_USE_COUNT... That fix is coming... Could these be 
keeping symbols from working??

I went to /usr/src/linux/Documentation/kdb and found lots of good stuff, but 
not about this. Doesn't seem to be anything in the list archives for the kernel 
list about this either.. Anyone know of an achive of this list??

        Thanks for any help!
