Something very odd is happening - me!
I thought that I would have one last try before leaping off the roof and I have just rebooted into my 2.4 kernel with no 'unresolved symbols' messages.
I honestly don't know what I did or didn't do to make it work this time. I do, however, have 66 excuses.
One is that when the clocks change it makes me *really* tired for about a week.
The other 65 are years! When I was young my memory was never very good and I can assure you that it does *not* improve with the passing years.
Sorry for the wasted time everybody.
I have now tried endoshield and it seems to work. What a relief.
With reference to Adam's suggestion regarding kernel-package I prefer the old fashioned way at present but I'll have a look at it one day.
Many thanks to everyone who tried to help.
