OK, I find this rather bogus but it's fixed. modules-update will clear an existing modprobe.conf file and leave you with nothin then there is an error in any of the files it's working on. Worse it gives you no messages that it's done this. In my case the error was in the above file. Turns out I needed to say 'install'. Nowhere did I find any documentation on this. Only a bug report from last year that hasn't been acted upon yet. Horray for Bugzilla. gandalf etc # cat modules.d/ivtv alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-81-0 ivtv install ivtv /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ivtv remove ivtv /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove ivtv && /sbin/modprobe -r wm8775 && /sbin/modprobe -r cx25840 && /sbin/modprobe -r tuner gandalf etc # Well, I hope this thread helps someone in the future.
