These are not the symbols, but the modules where they are contained in!
Symbols, please (as output by "depmod -ae", try "man depmod" for more
info).

With 2.4 you may try the following:
take a unresolved symbol, strip the trailer _Rxxx(if any), grep
for the remainder in /proc/ksyms.
Grep for the remainder in <kernel root dir>/include/linux/modules in
all *.ver files.
Which value has CONFIG_MODVERSIONS in your .config? Post the results.

BTW, did you rename the config file from /boot into .config in the
kernelsource root dir, before calling "make oldconfig" ???

> uname -r does point to the correct kernel, yes.
No, my question was about the symlink /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build !
Post the output of
	ls -l /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
and the location of the correct (in case of more than one) kernel source
root dir.
