you could try:

depmod -a

but I think you have to be in the correct directory for it to find all
modules...

Yep, it originally started out as an error of 'modprobe can't find
modules.dep'
or some such, because I forgot to run the make modules_install, but then I
went
and rebuilt the kernel from a-z again and ran all the make commands, and i
still get that error. I'm about to update to pppd 2.4.0 though, we'll see if
that helps.
