sounds like maybe your modutils is not up to date. From
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes:
Current Minimal Requirements
============================
Upgrade to at *least* these software revisions before thinking you've
encountered a bug! If you're unsure what version you're currently
running, the suggested command should tell you.
Again, keep in mind that this list assumes you are already
functionally running a Linux 2.2 kernel. Also, not all tools are
necessary on all systems; obviously, if you don't have any PCMCIA (PC
Card) hardware, for example, you probably needn't concern yourself
with pcmcia-cs.
o Gnu C 2.91.66 # gcc --version
o Gnu make 3.77 # make --version
o binutils 2.9.1.0.25 # ld -v
o util-linux 2.10o # fdformat --version
o modutils 2.4.2 # insmod -V
o e2fsprogs 1.19 # tune2fs
o reiserfsprogs 3.x.0b # reiserfsck 2>&1|grep reise
rfsprogs
o pcmcia-cs 3.1.21 # cardmgr -V
o PPP 2.4.0 # pppd --version
o isdn4k-utils 3.1pre1 # isdnctrl 2>&1|grep version

I installed Progeny a couple days ago, then tried to compile a new 2.4.x
kernel into a deb package, and got error messages from depmod "unmet
dependencies" for all my modules I think.
Does anyone have any ideas of what package, if any, I'm missing to make a
successful kernel compile?
