    I'm trying to build the Wacom tablet driver from the linuxwacom project,
    and in attempting to load the resultant wacom.o module, I get three
    unresolved symbols:

    input_register_device_Rd7e250e3
    input_event_Rbe7e42b3
    input_unregister_device_Rcf34c401

    I have the 2.4.18-1-k6 kernel image that loads at boot. In order to
    build this module, I installed the 2.4.18-1-k6 kernel package and built
    the source using the .config file in my /boot partition. Now, I find the
    same symbols published in:

    /lib/modules/2.4.18-1-k6/kernel/drivers/input/input.o

    that I just built. However, these may not be the same symbols published
    by the actual running kernel, and I don't know how to tell what those
    are.

    So I suppose the question is: does a built module attempt to reconcile
    its symbols with a running kernel or with the one you've just built? (I
    hope this makes sense.)
