Hi Peter! /etc/modules.conf includes all the names of modules, they are installed into your kernel. I´m not shure whether modconf has generated this file. But modconf will write into it by selecting a module to put it into the kernel. The kernel reads this file to see which modules shall be load at booting.
[If here is a mistake please correct me. I´m still very new in the linuxworld.] Matthias ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter Jay Salzman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Debian user mailing list <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Sent: Friday, October 20, 2000 6:31 PM Subject: what is modules.conf > i've never got this straight -- > > 1. what is modules.conf? what is it used for? > > 2. which applications use this configuration file? and when? > only at boot time? > > 3. how is it generated? > > always wanted to know this... thanks! > > pete > > > -- > Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null >
