Hi, I have just installed (from scratch) SuSE linux 7.2 on a Toshiba Labtop. In the /lib/modules directory there is a directory "2.2.4-4GB" where the kernel modules are located.
When compiling the kernel sources, running "make modules" and "make modules_install" I can see that the modules for the drivers I have selected to be running as modules (in menuconfig) are NOT in /lib/modules/<kernel version>. This is true for both my sound cards the USB devices and the modules for PCMCIA.
Sound moved with 2.4.x. Should be in
/lib/modules/sound
Yes and the pcmcia modules should be located in /lib/modules/<kernel version>/pcmcia. But shouldn't make modules_install move them there. If not, then one has to manually move all the modules, and if you are not sure where they are supposed to go, then you are f..... Bruce Marshall suggested to run mk_initrd, and I'm going to try it later, but the problem still remains with other programs that expects to find the modules in /lib/modules/<kernel version>. What about them ?. And what if I later wan't to delete the /usr/src/linux directory. Bo bjc@image.dk
