modprobe sunlance or put 'sunlance' in /etc/modules... Better yet, install discover1 and it'll all get done for you. Fellow kernel maintainers: what's the best way to document the modularization of the kernel images for 2.6? It used to be that kernel images contained a built-in sunlance on sparc32, and a built in sunhme on sparc64. I was interested in standardizing all this for simplicity (for example, to make kernel udebs for sparc easier to build.) I fear that using NEWS.Debian won't be obvious enough. And a debconf note seems overkill, and I have no idea how to integrate that into the kernel image package. Or should I show no mercy? :) -- Joshua Kwan
