Subject: Problems with 2.6.0-test1 && depmod

I've just installed 2.6.0-test1 but whenever I try to use depmod, lsmod
or insmod I get this error:

Module Size Used by Not tainted
lsmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented

I first noticed this when I was trying to install the nvidia drivers.
Needless to say that I was unable to install them. What can I do to
solve this problem? By the way,

depmod version 2.4.16

Thanks in advance,
Pedro Ribeiro

Please read

when it's back online (maybe 2 hours).

Also, you need to use the module-init-tools for 2.6.

I use 0.9.12. You can try 0.9.13-pre if you want to.

0.9.13-pre seems to work flawlessly here, by the way.
