-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all. Under the 2.6.x series of kernels, most of my modules get loaded automagically either during hardware detection, or as they are needed. However, I have 2 modules, ip_nat_ftp and pcspkr, that don't load automatically. I realize that I can create a script under /etc/init.d/ that would modprobe them, but using /etc/modprobe.conf looks like a much more elegant, and more proper solution. The problem is, that having read the modprobe.conf man page, I see how to create aliases, how to pass options to a module, and how to install/remove modules using custom commands. I don't see a way to simply modprobe for a module. The 2 things that I have tried, using alias, and the install command, ended up either not working, or putting modprobe in a loop. So, would someone please be kind enough to tell me what I'm missing, and what's the proper way to simply modprobe a module using 2.6.x kernels and module init tools? BTW, I'm running debian if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance for any help.
