I successfully installed the updated nForce drivers downloaded from nVidia's
site, and can now get both sound and network functions. However, whenever I
reboot, I have to go through a big modprobe ritual to get them to work.
Specifically:
modprobe nvnet
modprobe 3c59x
modprobe i810_audio
modprobe ac97_codec
modprobe soundcore
Then I have to run netcardconfig on both NICs every single time.
Isn't there any way to have these things probed automatically at boot time
(preferably without having to compile a new kernel, especially since these
all work when I boot up with the Mepis CD, and that is the kernel I am
using)?
