By default, the hotplug system probes all the hardware that it can find at boot-time and tries to load the necessary kernel-modules. Often, though, you don't want this. If, for instance, you load the module for an ethernet adapter before the networking services start, you end up with a half-configured network interface, which is useless or inconvenient. So hotplug provides the blacklisting facility, by which you can instruct it not to load certain modules (on the assumption that they will be loaded at a later point by other utilities when they will be more useful). The file /etc/hotplug/blacklist contains a list of the modules which are not to be loaded, Jim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
