make oldconfig
make dep && make clean bzImage modules modules_install
emerge -k nvidia-kernel alsa-driver |
Everything finishes fine. Then I do a modules-update and get | Quote: | depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.22_pre2-gss/kernel/drivers/input/mousedev.o

How do I resolve these?

| Im just guessing now... but that looks like kernel modules... and in that case i gues you need to recompile your kernel. but i advise you to wait for somone with more experience on this subject to answer berfore you do anything. Its stupid to recompile a kernel in vain. |

Quite all modules depend from other modules or kernel native options. In your case you have to try to find out what are the kernel options required to your modules.
A little suggestion in contrast with the previous post: compile, compile and compile!

| Apparantly when building new modules it is essential to build, install and run the associated new linux kernel. As I said above I was just doing the build and then doing update-modules. When I did update-modules after installing the kernel and rebooting it worked much better (mousedev modprobed). Still had to re-emerge nvidia-kernel and alsa-driver, and had to get into XWindows, update-moduels there and then reboot again to get /dev/dsp created and the sound drivers working in X. Repeated compiles without changing the kernel parameters were not helpful. |
