To this I have a question:
I am Debian GNU/Linux Consultant and Systemadministrator and have
to maintain arround 1500 Workstations with arround 600 different
configurations at over 440 customers (de, fr, es, ma, tr, ir).
If "X.org" depends on "discover" (which gaved me heavy problems on
over 80% of the installed systems) does this mean, do I have to
blacklist the whole Kernel-Module tree except for the graphiccards?
And if YES, HOW TO blacklist a whole Kernel-Module Tree?
And NO, it is not possibel for me to compile 600 different Kernels
for all configurations...
And YES, I use a monolytic Kernel on my OWN systems and "discover"
output tonns of errors even the modules are already loaded since
they are in the Kernel.

Good luck!

And does not try to load the whole Kernel-Module tree?
Your Word in God's ear! - I hope it will work.
