Description Max Kalika (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-03-20 08:10:48 UTC 
Even though ivtv installs in the currently linked kernel's module path, it still uses the running kernel for symbol information so that depmod fails since some modules may (and most likely do) have different loading locations.  I.e.:

 * Updating module dependencies for 2.4.29-custom...
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in //lib/modules/2.4.29-custom/extra/ivtv.o
depmod:         video_usercopy_Rc20f989d
depmod:         video_unregister_device_R1704bafc
depmod:         video_register_device_Rbbee5423                           [ ok ]

The locations are from 2.4.28-custom.

The attached patch fixes the makefiles to use proper locations.
