Re: symbol table....

No....i will explain in detail....actually i planned to install the USB driver manually...so i compiled "usbcore" module and installed in...after that i came to know that "ehci-hcd,uhci-hcd or ohci-hcd" driver are also used to USB work...so i tried to compiled that too...but when i try to install using "insmod" its shows the error message as "undefined symbols"....when i use "modprobe" it shows as "module not found"

When i check the symbols which are not defined,all are belong to "usbcore" module...but i already installed that module....even though this host drivers are showing errors....Thats why i planned to check the symbol table whether all the symbols from that "usbcore" module are installed are not....am i correct...if not please suggest me how to resolve this problem......

Are you talking about Kernel symbols or just symbols in an object file?

Kernel symbols can be seen by looking at the 'System.map' file in the Linux source or by running cat /proc/ksyms for the current running kernel's symbol list.

If you are examining an elf binary, you can use # nm <filename>

Here is a man page about nm(1)
