Any idea what might have loaded this module, or > what it is? Both AX25 and ROSE are adaptations of the X.25 protocol for use over (low speed) radio links. See for example: http://rose.fpac.free.fr/MINI-HOWTO/ ROSE seems to be using an adjustable number of pseudo devices configurable with the rose_ndevs parameter of the rose module, so these devices aren't bogus. I don't know what loaded the module. Maybe one of networking tools like ifconfig attempting to create a socket with every possible protocol family and the kernel then autoloading protocol family modules? Now the question is where you got the rose module. It hasn't been compiled into redhat kernels for a long time. If you want to avoid these modules being loaded, you could put: alias net-pf-3 off alias net-pf-11 off into /etc/modprobe.conf.
