And only if that directory exists, a network device is added. How can this be fixed properly? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Its just how to handle the "ps3:3" case. Are you saying that module loading (and finding what modules to load before checking for network interfaces) is not handled in hd_read_ps3_system_bus()? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The code in hd_read_ps3_system_bus() adds stuff only if the net directory exists. And the net directory exists only if the driver is loaded. chicken/egg stuff. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
