Unable to load dummy.o

[rkgee]

Hi guys,
I am unable to load dummy.o.Trivial problem i guess .I've compiled ethernet into the kernel.I am unable to load several other modules and when i tried dummy.o it too did not work.This is what my depmod says.
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/net/dummy.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/net/eepro100.o

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/net/ipv6/ipv6.o
When i tried insmod dummy.o this is what i get
/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/net/dummy.o: unresolved symbol __kfree_skb_Rsmp_970cb3b1
/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/net/dummy.o: unresolved symbol dev_alloc_name_Rsmp_66c2bc84
I'm new to gentoo and please help me.In case i missed some info please rectify me
Thank you,
RKgEE
