These are different things. /etc/modules.conf (aka conf.modules) lists options that modules should be loaded with, as well as pre and post commands to run (see man modules.conf); whereas /etc/modules on Debian merely lists the names of the modules you wish to automatically load at boot. I don't know for other distros, but I would say that putting lines such as "modprobe module" into /etc/rc.d/rc.local or somesuch would do the same job. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://spacepants.org/jaq.gpg You step in the stream, But the water has moved on.
