kernel-image-2.6.10-1-k7 module probs + some ?


Hi everyone

When I boot my brand new debian sid box, I get about 15 lines of something like :

ERROR: removing 'some_module_name' : device or ressource busy.

These are all modules I don't need and don't match my hardware. I tried rmmod and it said the same thing, I have to use the -f (force) switch to make it unload. But how do I configure my system so it doesn't load them in the first place?

Other than that, everything seems ok

Thanks

Yanik

Programs like kudzu, discover and hotplug load modules on boot. Also modules listed on
/etc/modules are loaded.

But if the module loads itself on the first place and/or gives "Device or resource busy" when unloading,
I doubt if it is a wrong module afterall..
