Its very frustrating that updating from Yast causes kernel updates to delete the /lib/modules directory for the old kernel.
If you don't immediately reboot, then any, i.e. USB, devices you plug into your machine after the update don't work.
Thats why you should reboot after installing the update.
Worse, if the new kernel wasn't installed correctly, the old kernel won't boot either lacking needed modules.
Have you really seen such cases or are you speculating?
Ciao, Marcus
I have one right now. About six modules do not work, and network is one of them also.
Offcourse i have several kernels that work ok, and did not loose their modules... only now i lost one, so this is happening...
So what kernel did you upgrade to?
To one of our regular kernel updates?
Ciao, Marcus
linux-2.6.25-rc7-git2-11-default is the one that lost, in favor of: 2.6.25-rc8-12. It is not that it is a big deal, because i am not without running kernelmodules, just that the other one is useless now...i have a naked kernel that now only uses space ;) Positive, or not, is that several bugs that were gone are back, and others are gone, for the moment, but that is not only because of the kernel.... -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (Now or never...)
