úpdate-modules'can't find modules

[St.Purple]

Hello I'm trying to get ppp working on my system but there's something wrong with the modules

I set the kernel up and marked all of the ppp things to be build as module and build the kernel. No errors during the proces. make modules and make modules_install went fine. But when I do a update-modules it sais it can't find any of the modules I just build.

I redid the whole thing but started with a make mrproper with the same result.

Can some help me out with this?

Hi! I had same problem.
First make sure you have link:
# ln -s /sbin/update-modules /usr/sbin/update-modules
Second, check attributes of ppp:
# ls -al /etc/modules.d/
I had to change attributes to make ppp not executable:
#chmod 0644 ppp
dann
#update-modules
and was fine. Hope it'll help

Nope...
The modules I tried to make are supossed to be in /lib/modules/blabla/kernel/net....
at the end of the proces ther not there............

My system has no trouble running update-modules so no need for a symlink, the program just can't find the modules stated in /etc/modules.conf cause ther just not there...

Yay. That fixed my problem with update-modules

Also, I'd previously (about 6 hours ago) had a problem where compiled modules were not ending up in the /lib/modules bit. Turns out I was running "make modules-install" instead of "make modules_install". Had me stumped for a while over such a simple mistake.
