This isn't directed to you, Bruce.. but your message brought up a point. There is something that I've been wondering.. Why is everyone so fascinated with modules? I acknowledge that they have their uses, but how many people really need to UNLOAD a module once it's loaded? If you need it, compile it into the kernel, where it belongs. You'll find that there are a lot fewer problems if you do. | This is OFFICIAL WRITTEN notification that I want to be REMOVED | | from ALL commercial mailing lists.
