Re: Loading kernel modules at startup



Ooh! modconf! It wasn't installed (how would I know?).

When I tried to install modules, it complained that modprobe.conf wasn't
there. So I created an empty modprobe.conf and was able to install the
modules (which caused problems with X, so I deleted it again). Was that an
appropriate action?

In any event, I'm much further ahead than I was before. Thanks.
