-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all. I'm trying to auto-load 2 modules under a 2.6.x kernel via modprobe.conf. The first module needs to have parameters passed to it, and the second depends on the first to be already loaded. In /etc/modprobe.conf, I have: alias char-major-62-64 ltmodem options ltmodem 3,0x00ec,0x2f8,0 and this part works fine, since the ltmodem module auto-loads when it's needed. The problem I'm having is loading the ltserial module, which needs to be loaded right after ltmodem, and which doesn't require parameters. I've tried a couple of things. First, after the options line given above, I put: install ltmodem /sbin/modprobe ltserial , but that just threw modprobe into a loop. Then, I deleted that line, and changed the alias line given above to say: alias char-major-62-64 ltmodem ltserial , however, only the ltmodem module loads. Can someone please explain how to do what I want? I know it's possible, I'm just not understanding how modprobe.conf works apparently. Thanks in advance for any help.
