Are you sure? I think, though I could be wrong, that the 2.6 update-modules uses /etc/modprobe.d/*, not /etc/modutiles. I thought /etc/modutils is only for 2.4 (and earlier) kernels. A fairly quick look through the /sbin/update-modules script doesn't indicate any usage of /etc/modutils/*. (however, that script does run the kernel 2.4/modutils update-modules script if it is present so that one command keeps both module config files up-to-date) At any rate, for kernel 2.6 the only file you (generally) need to edit is /etc/modprobe.conf. -D -- Love is not affectionate feeling, but a steady wish for the loved person's ultimate good as far as it can be obtained. --C.S.
