Hi Melchior!

Thanks a lot for your reply. In the meantime before reading your email, a 
simple "modprobe analog" did the job.

I put a script file inside "~/.kde/Autostart" to load this missing modulebut I 
think this is not the correct solution. Do you know the right way to load the 
module during the system boot up? I mean dealing with "/etc/modules.conf"

Cheers.

Daniel.
