Even if it is not nice, you could write the rmmod and modprobe command to /etc/init.d/boot.local. Maybe the network script is working correct then. (If not, write a small initscript based on /etc/init.d/skeleton which calls the commands and add Required-Start: network to ensure it is run late enough.) Oh, and please make an entry in bugzilla - this sounds like a bug. Regards, Christian Boltz -- My Trash Can is also a shortcut for Amarok...
