Normally, kldload can only find .ko modules in /boot/kernel. What if you have KERNEL=MYKERNEL set in /etc/make.conf, for instance, which will result in a kernel installed in /boot/MYKERNEL? kldload doesn't find the modules then (because all the .ko's are in /boot/MYKERNEL). I've first noticed this problem at start-up, when I got the message: green_saver: not found or something to that extent. Basically, there's a line in /etc/rc.i386 which says: kldstat -v | grep -q _saver || kldload ${saver}_saver I think we should change it to something like kldstat -v | grep -q _saver || kldload /boot/${kernel}/${saver}_saver because kldload can't find modules not installed in /boot/kernel. I think /etc/rc.i386 should include /boot/loader.conf to determine the location of the .ko modules, since that's where $kernel is defined. Another solution (instead of modifying rc.i386) would be to modify kldload so that it somehow checks the value of $kernel set in /boot/loader.conf to check the location of kernel modules. I think this is a more elegant solution, but I don't know if it's necessarily easier. - Donn To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
