I've noticed recently whilst booting up that depmod fails and when I do it by hand i.e

Code:
/sbin/depmod -a
Segmentation fault


Also recently re-complied my kernel and at the end I got (don't know if related to above)
Code:
INSTALL lib/zlib_inflate/zlib_inflate.ko
if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map  2.6.5_rc2-benh1; fi
make: *** [_modinst_post] Error 139




Code:
uname -a
Linux linux 2.6.5_rc2-benh1 #4 SMP Wed Apr 14 19:39:21 CEST 2004 ppc PPC970, altivec supported PowerMac7,2 GNU/Linux


My current kernel sources:
Code:
   
ppc-development-sources-2.6.5_rc2-r1

Current modul -init-tools
Code:

sys-apps/module-init-tools-0.9.15_pre4


Any pointers to what is wrong and is the non working of /sbin/depend a real problem?

Perhaps I should have posted this thread in ppc gentoo?

OK solved: self inflicted!

I tried to get my philipps webcam to work
via some (binary) pcwx kernel module but I think it was for i386 and not ppc.
I removed the pcwx.ko and bingo /sbin/depend -a works.
