Re: keeping a module from loading - sarge install
On centrino laptops, blacklisting the modules will not do it. The problem
is a conflict between the usb and i810 sound modules in the kernel on the
install cd. This cause discover and hotplug both to seg fault. The only
way to correct this is to stop discover and hotplug from loading durring
init, either by removing them from rcS.d or uninstalling them. Once these
are remove the system will reboot, and you can install discover version
2.x (install comes with 1.7.7, doesn't like the laptop modules) and
hotplug.
