That is exactly when they start unloading!
I once had a pppd problem because I loaded serial as a module. At bootup
it would use setserial to set the proper interupt for the modem. If I
started pppd within 2 minutes of bootup everthing worked fine. If I tried
to start pppd after 2 minutes it would fail because, although serial got
reloaded, it had the wrong, default, interupt values and wouldn't work.

Luck,

Dwarf
