Since the linux upgrade that rolled out on Nov 9, I have encountered an error during boot that says loading user-defined modules [FAIL]. I read a post mentioning the problem being related to the /boot dir being on a separate partition (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=129970). Mine is not on a separate partition, so no booting to a live disk will fix that problem for me. Another post mentions the problem causing loss of USB support (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=130030) which is, as of yet, unresolved. I For all the people upgrading to linux3.1.1 with no problems, do you know what my problem would be?
I have tried upgrading 3 times but each time it kills my wireless support completely. All else seems to be working fine.
Does anyone know what is causing this? or how to fix it or work around it? I updated my mirrorlist and ran pacman -Syyu but this problem is still there 2 weeks later. I've been running pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-3.0.7* and rebooting after every system update.
Please help.
Thanks.

Is your rc.conf up-to-date? The error could be caused by old style blacklisting in MODULES=().

If you have any modules from the AUR (broadcom-wl?) you need to rebuild and reinstall the module every time the kernel is updated.

Thanks. I didn't realize I had to get a new driver every time. I've gone through several kernel upgrades so far and haven't had any problems. That fixed it, though.
