SubjectRe: modutils, the next generation
While we're on the subject, how about adding a new field to the module,
containing the device number which it will drive when loaded? That way, we
could dispense with the defaults in modprobe and having to maintain
/etc/conf.modules - depmod can just go through the available modules and
build its list from them.
