Subject: drm woes continue in test13-pre4

Greetings,

Up to and including -test12, tdfx.o has built and run nicely.

Starting with -test13-pre1, and continuing to -test13-pre4,
tdfx.o (and other modules e,g the olympic.o token ring driver)
have not been successfully created. In general, modules work fine,
it's just a few that have been broken byu the makefile changes.

# uname -r
2.4.0-test13-pre4

# lsmod
Module Size Used by
iptable_filter 1872 0 (autoclean) (unused)
ip_nat_ftp 3408 0 (unused)
iptable_nat 12672 1 [ip_nat_ftp]
ip_conntrack_ftp 2048 0 (unused)
ip_conntrack 13056 2 [ip_nat_ftp iptable_nat
ip_conntrack_ftp]
ip_tables 10624 4 [iptable_filter iptable_nat]
ide-scsi 8096 0
8139too 15632 2 (autoclean)
emu10k1 45232 0

However, "modprobe tdfx" yields 34 lines of "unresolved symbol"
messages and a failure to load the module.

Other info:
modutils version: 2.3.21
gcc version: egcs-2.91.66

More info on request

Hope this helps direct attention to the problem -
