   kernel OK - Modules KO

   Hi u all,   
      
   Here is the problem :   
   I've just compiled the new kernel following these steps :   
   - emerge the new sources   
   - eselect to the new kernel   
   - make menuconfig - make && make modules_install   
   - copy the new kernel image to /boot   
   - add the new kernel to grub.conf -> reboot   
      
   Then everything seems to work but it seems that it points to the wrong   
   modules version. At boot, il says :   
   "This is jf_hp at chez.moi ( linux i686 2.6.30.gentoo-r8 )"   
   if I run eselect kernel list, I get :   
   Available kernel symlink targets:   
     [1]   linux-2.6.30-gentoo-r8   
     [2]   linux-2.6.31-gentoo-r6 *   
   jf@jf_hp / $   
      
   and when I want to make some modules I need, it puts them in the wrong place   
   :   
      
   "make -C /home/jf/3650/s2-liplianin/v4l   
   make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jf/3650/s2-liplianin/v4l'   
   creating symbolic links...   
   make -C firmware prep   
   make[2]: Entering directory `/home/jf/3650/s2-liplianin/v4l/firmware'   
   make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/jf/3650/s2-liplianin/v4l/firmware'   
   make -C firmware   
   make[2]: Entering directory `/home/jf/3650/s2-liplianin/v4l/firmware'   
   make[2]: Nothing to be done for `default'.   
   make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/jf/3650/s2-liplianin/v4l/firmware'   
   Kernel build directory is /lib/modules/2.6.30-gentoo-r8/build   
   make -C /lib/modules/2.6.30-gentoo-r8/build SUBDIRS=/home/jf/3650/s2-   
   liplianin/v4l  modules   
   make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.30-gentoo-r8'   
     Building modules, stage 2.   
     MODPOST 313 modules   
   make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.30-gentoo-r8'   
   ./scripts/rmmod.pl check   
   found 313 modules   
   make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jf/3650/s2-liplianin/v4l'   
      
   then I can't load these modules, as it doesn't find them !   
      
   Any help would make me happy :)
