Re: 2.6.4 kernel



I just thought of something I missed when setting my 2.6 up.
the aliases are no longer in /etc/modules.conf but in /etc/modprobe.d/aliases.
It took some time to me to figure out that this line was missing in my aliases : 
alias eth0 sungem
which prevented the ethernet to be loaded when ifup'ing the eth0.
Alias for sound card should also be set there instead of modules.conf.
