Check than if you have the right module option in /etc/modules.conf

That was what I needed, thanks! The sensors-detect gives the less-than-useful path "some /etc/rc* file" :-)

The only lingering problem now is that, during boot, modprobe complains that "modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/modules.dep"

Is this serious?

It is not serious. If you want to get rid of it, just type: touche /etc/modules.conf /lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/modules.dep - -- Thibaut Cousin E-mail : cousin@in2p3.fr Web : http://clrwww.in2p3.fr -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE90m5Lv1vqsTa1E4oRArqVAJ433io3uwYYAKTyMkaumnPhu/WKjQCggbcC qQ4beZX0nUWFxR69SXgtXkM= =JX+L -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

It is not serious. If you want to get rid of it, just type:

touche /etc/modules.conf /lib/modules/2.4.19-4GB/modules.dep

And why not "depmod -a"

I haven't tried this one. Sorry, I made a typo. The command is "touch", not "touche". - -- Thibaut Cousin E-mail : cousin@in2p3.fr Web : http://clrwww.in2p3.fr -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE90neqv1vqsTa1E4oRAoxRAKC/eBZ1EcMsnmRFKL16c3Egb4ZunQCcD5gu NdeXchfSeRSPdAIkj8Ih+YE= =8qkP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

man depmod

depmod - handle dependency descriptions for loadable kernel modules

man touch

touch - change file timestamps

Looks to me for the above case depmod is a better solution yet YMMV

No. The problem you have is not a dependency problem. The module manager just checks that modules.conf (the configuration file) and modules.dep (the dependency file) have the same age. It can indeed happen that different ages for those files indicates a kernel change that has not been taken in account everywhere. But if all you do is changing modules.conf and not the kernel, then there is no real problem and you can ignore the warning. "Touching" the two files makes them the same age, so the warning disappears. - -- Thibaut Cousin E-mail : cousin@in2p3.fr Web : http://clrwww.in2p3.fr -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE90nnZv1vqsTa1E4oRAmuIAKDNYZk06l/GriAsXl3R0t+F69pclQCfV3Ew IH6EcKUGn4e70HM+GPCgVn4= =ECS/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
