You're probably right, but what you've just described is one of the many
things I tried when it wasn't working. This kernel (2.6.10) was loading the
modules, but not passing any parameters at all, so they all ran on
defaults.
I'd also prefer to be able to load and unload modules by name, and still
have some important parameters passed to them automatically. If you know a
reliable way of doing that, I'd love to know (I just fear it might depend
on the distro).
