Re: Hardware detection question/problem

[Dave Marples <dave@marples.net>]

The latest discover seems to be called 'discover', and it won't 
auto-update due to dependencies, so [apt-get install discover] is your 
friend.  The current version in sarge (for me at least) fixes most of 
the problems I had with NICs etc....only outstanding issue was that 
alsa wouldn't load. That was due to discover being _too_ good and 
loading the i810 module when I really wanted the one from alsa....a 
suitable line in /etc/discover.conf to ignore the sound module fixed 
that.

Everything's peachy again...
