Hi.

It seems I've run exactly in the situation you describe.

Actually, I had a loop module loaded already and didn't reboot after
having installed the modules, nor unload and reload the module.

Now I have rebooted, it works OK.

Can close then.

Maybe a warning at installation of the package would be a plus... but
not a big deal.

Many thanks and sorry for the bothering ;)

Best regards,
