Hi,

After my update from Hoary to Breezy, I observed a repeated pattern in my kern.log.
Every time after "No module symbols loaded", the next line is partially garbled.

Here are some examples:

Nov  9 13:43:31 localhost kernel: No module symbols loaded - kernel modules not
enabled.
Nov  9 13:43:31 localhost kernel: .617000] Checking if this processor honours
the WP bit even in supervisor mode... Ok.
                                  ^^^^^^^^
Nov  9 17:08:51 localhost kernel: No module symbols loaded - kernel modules not
enabled.
Nov  9 17:08:51 localhost kernel: 000] Mount-cache hash table entries: 512
                                  ^^^^
Nov  9 17:56:25 localhost kernel: No module symbols loaded - kernel modules not
enabled.
Nov  9 17:56:25 localhost kernel: nitialized
(the latter may be a typo in kernel sources?)

Nov  9 15:21:18 localhost kernel: No module symbols loaded - kernel modules not
enabled.
Nov  9 15:21:18 localhost kernel:

Nov  9 15:38:12 localhost kernel: Inspecting /boot/System.map-2.6.12-9-686
Nov  9 15:38:12 localhost kernel: Loaded 28225 symbols from
/boot/System.map-2.6.12-9-686.
Nov  9 15:38:12 localhost kernel: Symbols match kernel version 2.6.12.
Nov  9 15:38:12 localhost kernel: No module symbols loaded - kernel modules not
enabled.
Nov  9 15:38:12 localhost kernel: 00000000 00000000
Nov  9 15:38:12 localhost kernel: [4294667.385000] Intel machine check
architecture supported.

BTW, I don't understand "kernel modules not enabled" since the system seems very
well able to load kernel modules on demand, e.g. iptables. What's the actual
meaning of this message?

The machine is a Fujitsu/Siemens laptop Lifebook C1110.

 Jörg Höhle
