Right, my mistake, it should. Garrett D'Amore writes: > Not really. The clicks and pops come from power being applied to > amplifiers, and there's not much you can do about it. I'd call that more of a hardware design issue. It takes some work to avoid letting transients through, but it shouldn't just be impossible (and I don't think it all should be blamed on drivers). > 1) modules losing their settings when a targetted unload occurs -- > I've argued that if someone is manually unloading a module, then this is > appropriate. I think it'd be nicer if the settings don't go away simply because of an unload. Then you also wouldn't have to reach for unusual no-unload settings, and you wouldn't have to keep code resident in the kernel merely to satisfy a desire for some parameter storage. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <james.d.carl...@sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list opensolaris-code@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
