Add the appropriate entries to /etc/hotplug/blacklist Here are the contents of the blacklist example file... which has directions, etc. # # Listing a module here prevents the hotplug scripts from loading it. # Usually that'd be so that some other driver will bind it instead, # no matter which driver happens to get probed first. Sometimes user # mode tools can also control driver binding. # # Syntax: driver name alone (without any spaces) on a line. Other # lines are ignored. # # uhci ... usb-uhci handles the same pci class usb-uhci # usbcore ... module is loaded implicitly, ignore it otherwise usbcore # tulip ... de4x5, xircom_tulip_cb, dmfe (...) handle same devices de4x5 # At least 2.4.3 and later xircom_tulip doesn't have that conflict # xircom_tulip_cb dmfe ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
