Hi all,

I'm using kernel 2.6.0-test11 and I'm not able to get some module
loading when system starts.

I want to load LVM2 module. I add it into /etc/modules.conf, run




                                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2.6 uses /etc/modprobe.conf
The first time make it with:

/sbin/generate-modprobe.conf

When do you run this command? I tried the command in the 2.6 kernel environment and got the below error.

/sbin/generate-modprobe.conf
/sbin/generate-modprobe.conf: line 32: modprobe.old: command not found
Cannot find old version of modprobe. Giving up.

This command has only to be run once.
Now look at /etc/modprobe.conf
What you had in modules.conf has been translated to modprobe.conf
syntax.
The error arises just from your not having an earlier modprobe.conf.
Ignore it. Modules should be loaded now.

Thanks for the information. I had to run redhat-config-soundcard to get any sound. It sounds better with the 2.6 kernel. Sounds more spacial.


The sound tool on the toolbar (applet) does not work. (no audio device). The open volume control functions though.

It is nice to have sound again. I looked at /etc/modprobe.conf and at/etc/modules.conf - Both existed but did not look anything close to each other.

modules.conf had this.

alias eth0 3c59x
alias usb-controller usb-uhci
alias sound-slot-0 i810_audio
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 2>&1 || :


modprobe.conf had only the ethernet card (twice). One works, one doesn't.
include /etc/modprobe.conf.dist
alias eth0 3c59x
alias eth1 3c59x
