21 I downloaded that file and rebooted and dmesg griped about another file
22 and I found it and downloaded it and rebooted and now my output looks
23 like this, which I'm happy with:

53 Speaking of which, isn't there an easier way to reload modules than
54 rebooting? When I started using Gentoo in 2004, there was an
55 /etc/init.d/hotplug, which was replaced by /etc/init.d/coldplug, but
56 neither one seems to be present anymore on the system. What service
57 loads modules on bootup now?
