I have recently installed a SuSE 6.3 system, and everything has gone
really quite smoothly. I configured the network card (a NE2000
compatible) during the install (loading it as a module ne.o with the
correct IRQ and io numbers) and it has worked fine.
I have noticed during the boot sequence that there are
warnings/errors about 5 or so unresolved symbols. These are all
associated with ne.o. I do not honestly know if these errors were there
from the start, or whether they have occurred since. Since the install,
the main changes I have made to the system have been adding a printer,
installing LaTeX, and installing and configuring Samba. I have not
recompiled the kernel (though I have done it on another system, and I
realise that this ties up with the symbols issue through System.map).
The network card still seems to be working fine.
Anyway does anyone know how these errors occurred and how to get rid
of them? I would be very grateful for any help (can't find answer in
Linux in nutshell, SuSE manual, or ILUG archive)
Thanks in advance,
mick
