The newest modutils is 2.4.2 which you can get from kernel.org. Check to the recent ac's on 2.4.2 (I believe its ac4) as these may point out any known issues.
What problems are you getting?

Hey matt, Thanks for the pointers. I'm actually trying to be a good boy and not take my system too far away from SuSE's design this time through. IIRC there are some dependency issues with the RPMs from ftp.kernel.org. I don't even know what I have on this 7.1 system as regards modutils. One of my problems is that when the system boots or when I do a modprobe eth0 I get an eth0 not found error. I looked and 3c59x.o is in a few differnet places under the 2.4.2 modules tree. I can't say I've been completely thorough, but I believe it corresponds 1-to-1 with the 2.4.0 instnaces. I'm using the same modules.conf for both boots (wouldn't it be nice to have different ones for different boots?) Of course the result of this is that the network connection doesn't work. I had been building this fine with 7.0, but I was using updated modutils. Steve
