12 I guess I should clarify. The module loading as done by devfs does not
13 work in 2.6. I know devfs is depreciated but you can still build 2.6
14 with devfs support and devfs is supposed to load modules on demand.
15 This is the module auto-loading I was referring to.

17 I haven't looked at udev yet and tried to get 2.6 to work completely
18 because I don't feel like sitting in front of my PC for days trying to
19 get it to work.
