hello,

i noticed that even though a module's probe function
returns an error insmod will still load it and will only
print a message to /var/log/messages

i need a way to prevent the module loading inside the
probe function and cause insmod return an error value
that i can use later in a shell script. any ideas?

modprobe i guess should be smarter about these things
but the module has to be in a special directory, and i need
something that can load any module from any arbitrary
directory without much setup.

any help would be appreciated.
