I don't think drivers/ide ever really played well when built modular, at least not in 2.4, quite possibly in 2.6 as well. Things like DMA not getting turned on automatically when the low-level driver was a module, etc. Likely why Red Hat/Fedora never built it modular when they did everything else.. -- Robert Hancock Saskatoon, SK, Canada To email, remove "nospam" from hancockr@...pamshaw.ca Home Page: http://www.roberthancock.com/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
