is there somewhere a decent intro on the new /etc/modprobe.conf file? i've been running a 2.6.0-test kernel for a while now, but i've hung on to my /etc/modules.conf file. as a test this morning, i ran /sbin/generate-modprobe just to see the output. the first time i tried it, i got a fairly lengthy output, which was fine, as i noticed the utility was pulling information out of /etc/modprobe.conf.dist. the second time i ran it, it simply kept running and running and ... and when i looked in /tmp, there were almost 4000 files with the name /tmp/modprobe*, and /etc/modprobe.conf.dist was now empty. not surprisingly, i don't really trust this program any more. so, any decent HOWTOs on this? rday
