thanks for the reply
i just somehow assumed that modules.conf should take care of this
from my past experience,
whenever i add something to rc.local,
i end up finding the "correct" way to configure it later.
i see you have this script run at the very beginning.
that way it is before gpm.
i imagine if i put it in rc.local, it will come up last,
by that time gpm has already given me an oops.
i will use the script if i dont get any other solutions
thanks again
