Hi Marco, It makes more sense this way. I had hoped for actual arguments, not for arbitrary assertions like this one. I don't think so: I hadn't changed my /etc/modules for months. Yet, since the introduction of kmod, the radeon module is loaded, and it wasn't before, so clearly something did change.

Hi Marco, You explicitly requested that the module should be loaded, so I believe that it is reasonable to load it. Well, I explicitly put it on a blacklist, so I believe that it is reasonable to not load it. Clearly, this kind of argument isn't getting anybody anywhere. Therefore, I think that things should just stay the way they were to avoid breaking users' configurations.

Bug#663469: kmod loads modules even though they're blacklisted
Package: kmod Version: 6-1.1 Severity: normal Hi, I have the fglrx-driver package installed. It includes /etc/modprobe.d/fglrx- driver.conf, which blacklists the radeon module, but the radeon module is loaded nevertheless at boot time.

Bug#663469: kmod loads modules even though they're blacklisted
Hi Marco, thank you for your reponse. I think I've figured out why the radeon module is loaded at boot time on my system. It is mentioned in my /etc/modules. /etc/init.d/kmod reads this file and loads every module in it with modprobe $module $args I think the -b flag should be used here.

Hi Marco, No, it should not. Care to elaborate? Before kmod was introduced, the blacklist took precedence over /etc/modules. Why do you think this is supposed to change?
