Wouldn't PCI and ISA PnP support help here? Standard 2.0.x kernels support /proc/pci since a long time, so it should be possible to check the device names on /proc/pci against a table in order to load the apropriate modules. It should also be possible to deal with PnP just the same way, although I don't know what the status of the PnP support in the kernel is right now. Regards, M. S. ------------ Martin A. Soto J.
