Quite possibly :( You said modules wouldn't load? Possibly because
you need the newer version of modutils (taking wild stabs in the
dark here). You can either see if you can recompile it under woody,
or see if somebody else has already (www.apt-get.org might be your
friend).

Or wait for 2.6 where module-loading happens in kernel and this
problem wouldn't exist :)

Regards,

Bernard.
