My Thinkpad has a parallel port, but I never use it, so I should disable this wasteful loading: # sed -n 's/.*\(parpo\)/\1/p' /var/log/syslog parport_pc 00:09: activated parport_pc 00:09: reported by Plug and Play ACPI parport0: PC-style at 0x3bc, irq 7 [PCSPP]
I looked in /etc/init.d/ for the scripts with the access time close to when those lines were written, but still cannot figure out which is to blame. Does one just write something in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist as a last resort? Is there a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local or better place to write that something? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
