Ya, the weird part is if I do an lsmod command it will ahow all the mods loaded properly. There are several things lately that I have run into of a similar nature. Another one being a Have install the jre-1.3.1 rpms several times and there are there. I can point konqi at the new ones and it loads/run much faster and is more stable. But if I do a "java -v" it tells me that it -v 1.1.8. There are a few others that I may going into later (like why after repeated times installing susehilf,etc.. not all the docs/info/man pages are there and the susehilf dir/libs are empty). Runtime environments seems to always default to original packs regardless of any installs done. I always try to use yast - as per Ben's suggestion, and this has help (usually). But I often run into problems with new wares/packages. I have rebuilt the rpm data base, and run everything for SuSEconfig, depmod -a, etc that I can but to no avail. This is a recurrent problem I have. The only way I have been able to successfully do any sort of kernel rebuild and not have a completely empty mod.conf is to either rpm it (with mk_initrd and lilo) or to cloneconfig it. Anyway. this does get very frustrating, especially when I use readme's and info, etc.. etc.. and it doesn't work. I often chalk it up to inexperience and being a (relative) newbie. But I have been wondering if it isn't so much what I am or am not doing correctly of late. Cheers, Curtis. On Wed, 2002-02-06 at 19:19, Doug McGarrett wrote:
No, this is actually MOST important. This may be a bug. Someone from SuSE should look into this. --doug

Ok, I'm not sure how this happened but I think that when I tried to install the SBLive drivers form the creative opensource site may modules.conf went bye bye.

So, my question is this. A) how do a generate a new and "complete" modules.conf file?
And less important - how does this happen??
TIA, Curtis
