And those symbols are?

Please attach them.

Also, does this happen on a kernel with the same .config from kernel.org?
Comment 2 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-26 08:06:56 UTC
Please retest with a clean vanilla-sources kernel, and reopen this bug with the relevant unresolved symbol messages so that we can investigate. Thanks.

Closed due to lack of info.
