hello, i noticed that even though a module's probe function returns an error insmod will still load it and will only print a message to /var/log/messages i need a way to prevent the module loading inside the probe function and cause insmod return an error value that i can use later in a shell script. any ideas? modprobe i guess should be smarter about these things but the module has to be in a special directory, and i need something that can load any module from any arbitrary directory without much setup. any help would be appreciated. -- ilya -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
