Relinking the module with 'ld -r -o new_mod.o orig_mod.o' was useful too ...it worked around some 'exceeds local_symtab_size' messages. At the time I was using modutils 2.4.5 and an older version of binutils (sorry I'm not near the relevant box to check exactly which version), so maybe some of this is not relevant any more. Hope this helps in some way, Ian
