You almost certainly don't want to be using uname -r. That installs modules into the directories for the currently running kernel, and it is quite common for people to want to build modules for the *new* kernel that they just installed, before they reboot and start actually running it. You probably want to use the kernel-package framework for handling this sort of thing, since that's used by both kernel-package and module-assistant and handles all of these interesting special cases. See /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/README.modules, particularly at the end of that file. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
