Greetings...
I've recently installed Slackware 9.0 and I'm currently in the process of "cleaning up" the boot, i.e. making sure that only needed modules and services are loaded. Now, one thing puzzles me when I lsmod; i810-tco. It's listed as unused, with no other modules refering to it, and I don't have an i8xx chipset (my motherboard is the Asus P4G8X, with the E7205 chipset). What's the i810-tco good for? Seems to me like I don't need it. Also, I'm wondering what i810_rng might be. It tries to load at startup, but it's not found.
Doing rmmod i810-tco removes it, and the system does not (so far) seem to be affected. The problem is that I can't find what causes i810-tco to load at startup (and tries to load i810_rng). I've been all around /etc/rc.d and so on, commenting out unnecessary services and modules, but the i810 thing is nowhere to be found. Well, I'm quite new to Linux, but still.
I'd like to clean up the loading of unnecessary modules and services before I recompile the kernel, so...anyone?
