The problem is, I have to disable wireless (with the hotkey) on my laptop to unload the module, but when I re-enable wireless, the bluetooth init.d service starts automatically, and reloads the module! Why is the service starting automatically? I don't have it in any runlevels. I have RC_HOTPLUG="no" in /etc/conf.d/rc so I thought this shouldn't happen? The only way around it is to disable wireless, then rename /etc/init.d/bluetooth before enabling the wireless again... Any thoughts on fixing this? thanks, Hi. Every init.d script has a section  on which on can put what services that script depends on. That section is called, depend(). check your wireless init.d script and see if it has bluetooth has a dependency and try to remove it. i dont know if it will work, but you can try :-) this is an example for alsasound: depend() {         need bootmisc localmount         after modules isapnp coldplug hotplug } Cheers, Bruno -- Use OpenSource [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.feiticeir0.no-ip.org blog.feiticeir0.no-ip.org GPG Public Key Human Knowledge Belongs To The World Gentoo Linux
