How does the PCMCIA subsystem work on FC5? Who is responsible for loading modules on demand?

Hi guys,

I was wondering if someone could point me to the documentation here or give me some more information on this. I would like to understand how the PCMCIA subsystem works on FC5, what triggers the start-up scripts when a card is inserted/removed and how the module is loaded. Particularly how it decides which modules to load for that card and how I would tell it to load an alternative module instead. My understanding is that udev is responsible for that but I am not sure how it work.

Similarly, I would like to understand how the modules for the several peripherals and other modules are loaded. Who decides what should be loaded? What if I don't want to load a particular module e.g. IPv6.

If anybody could give me docs/info on how the OS loads/unloads modules on demand that will be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Vini
