Re: sb live card under debian

["Rev. DeFiLEZ" <rev@chris.gunslingers.org>]

you should open the sblive.o in vi do a search for 2.2.10 ( /2.2.10)

and replace it with 2.2.11 (cw 2.2.11 or r 1) 

then you dont have to force and you dont get that mess "this isnt what i was made for " message
now for my question is there a better way to do multiple configs
right now i have a 
if uname -a | grep "SMP" > /dev/null ; then
   insmod blahblah
else
   insmod blah
fi

in my  /etc/init.d/modutils?

-rev
