First of all, some modules still do have unresolved symbols:
=== Cut === /lib/modules/2.1.129/net/strip.o: unresolved symbol(s) arp_tbl /lib/modules/2.1.129/misc/isdnloop.o: unresolved symbol(s) strpbrk /lib/modules/2.1.129/misc/icn.o: unresolved symbol(s) strpbrk === Cut ===
The last two are caused by missing "EXPORT_SYMBOL(strpbrk);" in i386_ksyms.c (it's present in another arch's).
The first one is broken for a long time. I dunno how to fix it...
Second, the kernel locks hard when loading eepro100 (ARGHHH !!!) module. Back to my patched 1.04...
