1.0.7a: modules.conf is more recent (with possible solution)

#1 Post by Guest »

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

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."
