General question. Suppose I have an LT winmodem (say it's pcmcia). Is
it better to have an rpm postinstall script add to /etc/modules:
lt_serial
or add to /etc/conf.modules:
alias /dev/modem
The modules.conf entry will seemingly work better for pcmcia events, but
the modules entry seems to be adequate for pci. Comments?
