Oh gosh!! I'm sorry. I've been burned by exactly the same thing. Another issue about modules-update (or update-moduels) is that should there be a problem with the format of a single file the script stops but doesn't tell you. You then reboot to find things aren't right again, and stuff is missing from modprobe.conf. Anyway, you're not alone my friend. I've been there with exactly the same issue maybe a year ago. Very glad you are working now. Chhers, Mark
