Im trying to load my newly installed alsa driver but it fails.

The reason is simple, when i do a modprobe -c, here is what it gives at the end of the output:

Code:

modprobe -c
...
# Miscellaneous file and directory names
generic_stringfile=/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/modules.generic_string
pcimapfile=/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/modules.pcimap
isapnpmapfile=/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/modules.isapnpmap
usbmapfile=/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/modules.usbmap
parportmapfile=/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/modules.parportmap
ieee1394mapfile=/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/modules.ieee1394map
pnpbiosmapfile=/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/modules.pnpbiosmap
depfile=/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9/modules.dep
persistdir=/var/lib/modules/persist


modprobe is using the wrong dirs, as my system runs with 2.4.19-gentoo-r10.

Why do i still have the /lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r9 dir and how can i make modprobe understand that it has to use 2.4.19-gentoo-r10?

Are you sure you are running the newer kernel? uname -a will tell you for sure.
