I imagine it is something about my embedded distribution (voyage 0.8.0). I asked for help there. I will post back is they have any suggestion. I imagine there is a reason why this feature is not part of the distribution... Still I'm happy to test. # dpkg -l | grep module-init ii module-init-tools 3.12-1 tools for managing Linux kernel modules I created the folder and then /etc/depmod.d/00-system.conf same like yours. then I run "depmod -a" but lsmod shows the ath5k module is not loaded. If I overwrite the original .ko files I get this error: ath5k: version magic '3.0.0 SMP preempt mod_unload 486 ' should be '3.0.0-voyage SMP preempt mod_unload 486 ' if you have other ideas, I'm happy to try them! thank you, alfonso > > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > # > # /etc/depmod.conf - configuration file for the depmod(8) command, > # for its format see depmod.conf(5). > # > # Please don't edit this file, place your settings into the /etc/depmod.d > # directory. > > > # search order: > # 1 updates/ (KMPs) > # 2 extra/ (KMPs or manually compiled modules) > # 3 weak-updates/ (KMPs built for older kernels) > # 4 everything else > search updates extra weak-updates built-in > > # do not generate modules.*map files > make_map_files no > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Version of my inittools is: module-init-tools-3.12-6.1.x86_64.
