Hello,
Tom Gundersen: "If you want to have a temporary workaround I guess it would be

to blacklist your wireless module in /etc/modprobe.d and add it to
MODULES in rc.conf." [#1].
But in functions::udev_modprobe() there is a modprobe -ab, and -b implies does not load a
blacklisted module. Since MODULES() is supposed (at least for me) to be "always load
all listed modules", should be -b removed from modprobe line?
Damn, you caught me contradict myself. I think you might have caused a
rupture in the space-time continuum... My comment was wrong, this is
how it used to work, but I forgot that we have changed it.
I believe the current behavior is the correct one, if a module is
blacklisted we should not automatically insert it (not from udev, nor
from MODULES). This is particularly useful if the module is causing
problems and is blacklisted on the kernel command line.
Thanks for pointing out my mistake, I'll correct myself on the bug report.
Cheers,
Tom
Oh no! There is a new Black Hole!
OK, so for anyone that want to blacklist a module "for udev" but need to
be loaded manually on startup, should write your own initscript hook /
rc.d / rc.local.
