My drafted linux-kernel email that may have bad headers, bad eol, etc. is: --- To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] 2.4.22 precedes 0.9.9 in module-init-tools versions > From: linux-2.6.0-test4/Documentation/Changes > o module-init-tools 0.9.9 # depmod -V Newbie me, I was slow to imagine that depmod -V could be helpfully reporting two independent series of version numbers, the older prefaced with "depmod version ", the newer prefaced with "module-init-tools ". I wrongly thought that 2.4.22 was 0.9.9 or better, even when I saw the modprobe complaint: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented Therefore I propose the following patch.
