It will prevent the module "yealink" from ever being loaded. The "install" directive tells modprobe what to do instead of loading the module. It can for example be used if certain commands need to be run before a module is loaded, in which case the line would contain those commands, and end with another call to modprobe In this case it will only run the command /bin/true, which does nothing and returns successfully Anders -- Madness takes its toll -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
