Followup on depmod -a missing symbols
bash# depmod -ae
*** Unresolved symbols in module /lib/modules/2.0.1/misc/sound.o
sb_dsp_unload
sb_dsp_detect
sb_dsp_init
I notice sb_dsp.c is 0 so routines were moved to new file.
I had not changed my configuration so I did not make config
on the patched sources.
This resulted in the Makefile not being updated in
Sound.
Fix. I did make config with no option changes.
did a make modules and make modules_install.

Question? Why did the Make cause all files of all
modules recompilation.
I thought the purpose of Make was to determine which
files needed to be recompiled and only recompile and link
those files? All file had bee compiled within 2 hours of the
last build.
