Now that you know the name of the module, you can create an options line for it in modutils; then whenever the module is called for the system will act as if these options had been given on the command line. Usually it's *sound* that needs that, but anyways you can try ````` options 3c59x (whatever options you can get to work at commadline) ''''' Doublecheck the name of the module that loads; or if it bails and removes itself, mess around on the commandline with modprobe or insmod manually feeding it commandline options until you're happy with the results. Then add a file like loccal-ether to /etc/modutils with your options line, and re-run update-modules to recreate /etc/modules.conf cleanly. * Heather Stern * star@ many places... * Starshine Technical Services -*- 800 938 4078 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
