i still get the message
Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.29/modules.dep
the problem seems to be that modules.conf is set using a different time zone than modules.dep ... probably depmod runs before hwclock has set the kernel clock
it's a minor thing, but a simple workaround that seems to work is:
touch /etc/modules.conf
touch /lib/modules/2.4.29/modules.dep
this gives modules.conf an earlier timestamp than
modules.dep ... it's necessary to touch both files
1.0.7a: modules.conf is more recent (with possible solution)
FYI, this was just reported by an anonymous user in our IRC channel as being a problem with his "brand new install" of 1.0.6. He/she tried it and "after doing that it now works."
