I am writing this from my Gentoo equiped laptop after 36 hours of install and config, I can now run KDE. Woo Hoo!!

My problem is in following the Alsa installation in the Gentoo documentation, at:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml

I have followed all steps without error.

# cd /usr/src/linux
# cp .config ~/
# make mrproper
# cp ~/.config .
# make menuconfig
# make dep clean
# make modules modules_install
# emerge alsa (this is Alsa, utils, and oss)

I get to this point

# modules-update

and it returns this error and quits.
Quote:


bash-2.05b# modules-update
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-gaming-r3/kernel/drivers/net/starfire.o



I have no idea what to do being a somewhat newbie to starting linux from the ground up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob

Error is related to NIC driver
What is your NIC's chipset?

I am on a dell inspiron 5000e. I have a PCMCIA enet card which is is working...(obviously as I'm posting)
It is a Kingston EtherRxIC. but come to mention it, I do get an error on booting saying something to the effect that Enet is alredy started.

I'll try to get the exact message when I reboot.

Could it be somethig to the effect of trying to start an onboard NIC (which I dont have ) after starting PCMCIA? Or that I have inadvertantly included/configured for NIC and PCMCIA?

Thanks much....
