[Gllug] general module install issues

[Simon Jakesch]

in the scenario below why does my module not get found when i try to load it. i 
checked and it is there (under /lib/modules/2.6.3-7mdk/misc).
and a whole other question: what exactly is meant by "stale module entries"?

bye
Simon


====== issue two: "stale module entries"
/usr/src/linux-2.6.3-7mdk/scripts/Makefile.modpost:17: *** Uh-oh, you have stale 
module entries. You messed with SUBDIRS,
/usr/src/linux-2.6.3-7mdk/scripts/Makefile.modpost:18: do not complain if 
something goes wrong.
