As I was booting an old laptop I noticed a message coming up telling me that |
2 |
the /etc/modprobe.d/irda file will be done away with in future versions. |

Are these files now deprecated? Are we meant to fit everything in |
5 |
/etc/conf.d/modules as per the OpenRC migration page? |

Most of the /etc/modprobe.d/* files were created at the time I installed |
10 |
packages and include aliases for character device drivers and what not - of |
11 |
course I have a couple which I set up myself. Not all of the info has been |
12 |
transferred over to /etc/conf.d/modules; e.g. |
13 |
|
14 |
alias char-major-161 ircomm-tty |
15 |
|
16 |
Am I supposed to copy such stuff over to /etc/conf.d/modules myself, or am I |
17 |
going to mess up the new way of configuring modules? |
