Dear Maintainer,

since some time I have

in my Wheezy / Sid debian systems.

The roseX interface disappear after modprobe -r rose.

modinfo rose says:

mango:~# modinfo rose

vermagic:       3.4-trunk-amd64 SMP mod_unload modversions

I did not yet found out about the nrX ones. I see no hint at the driver
in

I do not seem to have any amateur radio packages installed:

mango:~# apt-show-versions | egrep 
"(ax25|hamlib|fbb|node|gmfsk|chirp|d-rats|soundmodem)"
knode/wheezy uptodate 4:4.4.11.1+l10n-3


Thus I am suspecting that udev loads these.


Expected results:

These modules are only loaded on demand. I.e. when a amateur radio
is connected or if thats not detectable amateur radio packages are
installed.

Currently these clutter the output of ip addr quite a lot without
me using amateur radio.


Feel free to reassign if something else is loading these modules.

Thanks,
Martin
