Hello

I compiled 2.5.48 and now all the files like modules.dep in /lib/modules are away.

I can't load a module, I get this:
modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.5.48/modules.dep ...

depmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented

I enabled all option in the module config.

thanks
Felix

You need Rusty's modutils from here:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rusty/modules/module-init-tools-0.7.tar.bz2

And a patch to kernel/module.c (so you don't get the "Cannot allocate memory" message...:

Rusty's stuff will let you load, but you'll still get the depmod error.
It would have been nice to have a version of depmod that does nothing
normally but calls the old version on an older kernel.

Maybe it is normal but this doesn't fix the depmod problem even with the new kernel, I have modprobe, rmod and so back but the package doesn't include depmod.

I am running debian unstable, many install scripts uses parameters that are not provided by this version (I think -l and -r).
Maybe this is only for debian so I have to wait for a patched package...

Is it a bug that all modules are in the same dir without subdirs ? It is hard to find them.

thanks
have fun
Felix

Yep. Tnere is no depmod. Bang on Rusty to fix things.

Rusty didn't include them.

See Rusty.

There is a certain trend here....not that modules didn't need fixing, but this is pretty serious functionality breakage.
