hi,
well, at least for allwinner, even running /etc/rc.d/kldxref has no =
effect,
I noticed this when trying out a wifi dongle,=20
...
	Starting devd.
	Autoloading module: if_rtwn_usb.ko
	warning: KLD '/boot/kernel/wlan.ko' is newer than the =
linker.hints file
	warning: KLD '/boot/kernel/rtwn.ko' is newer than the =
linker.hints file
=E2=80=A6

the link.hints is indeed very old :
neo-000# ls -ls /boot/kernel/linker.hints=20
224 -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  228972 Jan  1  2010 =
/boot/kernel/linker.hints

and strangely, other modules loaded did not complain.

how can this be fixed?

thanks,
	danny=
