One of my VirtualBox-3.2.10 modules does not load at boot. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
/etc/conf.d/modules: |
| 4 |
modules_2_6="vboxdrv" |
| 5 |
modules_2_6="vboxnetflt" |
| 6 |
modules_2_6="vboxnetadp" |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Everytime, either vboxnetflt or vboxnetadp does not load. It's consistent, one |
| 9 |
or the other does not load andit's always just one, never neither or two. |
| 10 |
Today it just happens to be the former: |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
$ lsmod | grep vboxnetflt |
| 13 |
vboxnetflt 13107 0 |
| 14 |
vboxdrv 1737920 2 vboxnetflt,vboxnetadp |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Once booted, modprobe vboxnetflt works as intended. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Neither dmesg nor messages has any clue. Both have only this identical info: |
| 19 |

kernel is 2.6.36-ck, this has been happening since 2.6.34; and my Google |
| 32 |
searches were fruitless. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Anyone have pointers as to why this might happen? |
