PS -- if you got the old version of the modules.dep, chances are you are
still using the old kernel.
Did you download the vanilla kernel sources? SuSE installs the kernel in
/boot/ (this is how lilo.conf is set up). vanilla kernel sources build the
kernel to be places in / by default. Is you new kernel sitting in /?
If the answer to the last question is yes, you must rebuild your kernel
after changing the line in the kernel top-level makefile which reads:
#
# INSTALL_PATH specifies where to place the updated kernel and system map
# images. Uncomment if you want to place them anywhere other than root.
INSTALL_PATH=/boot
INSTALL_PATH is commented out in vanilla kernel source. Uncomment it so it
will put the kernel in /boot. or your can change lilo.conf to point to your
new kernel in / if it is there.

erm... depmod -a I believe is the actual command to remake modules.dep
this should be done within the boot script, ie, /sbin/init.d/boot

Does anyone know how the file /lib/modules/2.2.x/modules.dep
is created? I did a `make modules modules_install' with a
stock (not SuSE) 2.2.15 kernel and found that I still had an
older version of that file, according to the date. I then
tried deleting it and rebooting. I got a new copy of the
older version.
