I just noticed this ...

root@mail:/home/turgon# depmod -a
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.25/kernel/fs/nfsd/nfsd.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.25/kernel/net/packet/af_packet.o

No big deal that NFS isn't loading; I'm not using it (yet, if at all). But I
don't know why the af_packet.o isn't loading. How can I find out what unmet
dependencies I need to meet?
