Re: /etc/modules

Hi, Graham!

I have the similar problem which I cured by modifying /etc/init.d/modutils
to allow calculation of module dependencies first.

( I do not no much about this mechanism, but why it's not a default behaviour?
  Just wondering....)

Here:

#
# If you want to re-calculate the dependencies everytime you boot
# remove the if from the following statement:
#
# AK 12/23/97 if [ \! -r /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.dep ]
# AK 12/23/97 then
        echo -n "Calculating module dependencies... "
        depmod -a > /dev/null
        echo "done."
# AK 12/23/97 fi
