mkinitrd and reboot.
Help me here:
I was under the impression that the script associated with mkinitrd looked at what was current. I've been bitten with that before,.) Currently I'm running with nouveau. Won't that get handed down into the new initrd?
Also: why is it in the initrd? Why isn't what is in /etc/modprobe.d/* honoured?
It solved my issue. :-)
In my case, it was nvidia which was getting loaded, and I wanted nouveau temporarily. Blacklisting it did not work, because it was loaded earlier, from initrd. That archive contains modules, but also config files and scripts.
Some config files are needed very early, before the filesystem is mounted...
Well I did a mkinitrd and juggled a few settings on the command line and still I get nouveau loaded. I juggled some more and hosed my system, put it back and still get nouveau. I replaced mkinitrd with drakut, hosed my system and reset it again. Still nouveau. I put mkinitrd back and tried again. Still nouveau. The only way I can get rid of nouveau is to put nomodeset on the book command line. What is it in initrd that loads it and how can I get rid of that ? -- /"\ \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML Mail / \ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
