post-install in modules.conf problem

["Nicholay P.Chuprynin" <mycola_piterskiy@mail.ru>]

Hello, All!

I have a strange problem with post-install directive in
/etc/modules.conf

In my modules.conf I have the following lines:

alias net-pf-4 ipx
post-install ipx /etc/init.d/ipx start

but it doesn't work as expected, e.g. ipx.o module gets loaded, but ipx
stays unconfigured.
The same syntacs works fine with alsa modules:

post-install snd-mixer-oss /usr/sbin/alsactl restore

Any help appreciated,

                                             Nicholay

P.S. I use 2.2.15 with kmod, modutils version is 2.3.16-6, ipx version
is 2.2.0.17-1.
