which package owns /etc/modules and how is it set up? I assume that if it had originally had speedstep-lib in it, the bug wouldn't have occurred. d On 18/08/05, Roberto C. Sanchez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Wed, Aug 17, 2005 at 10:28:07PM -0400, David Hugh-Jones wrote: > > I know about /etc/m

I know about /etc/modules. I mean, is there a way to ensure that this doesn't happen for users in future? The thing about a note in /usr/share/doc/toshutils/XXX is that it took me a long time to track the bug down to toshutils. cheers D On 17/08/05, Roberto C. Sanchez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >
