I had done that, to no avail.  I have not seen the error since recompiling the
kernel.  modules.deb?  or is it modules.dep ?

 Could it be a problem with a package?

I still get this when I do depmod -a. I have recompiled my kernel

This also shows up when I boot. Weird. I am still hoping it will go
away by itself just like it started by itself :)

Mine are gone after recompiling, but before I recompiled, I got rid of
everything under /lib/modules/2.2.12/

Oh yes, I have rebooted :)

I recompiled my kernel after removing /lib/modules/2.12/* and I don't see the
errors yet.  I already rebooted.

modprobe relies on the info stored in /etc/modules.conf and
/lib/modules/(kernelversion)/modules.deb, the later is generated by depmod
out of the infos found in /etc/modules.conf and the modules itself.
/etc/modules.conf is itself generated by the files stored in
/etc/modutils/ with update-modules command (this is debian specific -
AFAIK)

What happened was (as I gues) the folowing:

apt-get upgraded an package, which it self added some information to the
directory /etc/modutils and ran an update-modules but forgot (perhaps
becaus it is not important ... not all of the information stored in
/etc/modules.conf is used to generate /lib/modules/2.2.12/modules.deb) to
run a debmod ... modprobe only notes this fact.

By the way, at every boottime a depmod is executet (perhaps you have seen
the 'Updating modules...' message at boottime.

If you get ever again such an message (and want to get rid of it) just run
a

   depmod -a

as root.

Hop that clears the things a bit.
