Hello Derek, [..elided..]
Has anyone with a thinkpad found the mwavemd module loaded onto their system from the SuSE 7 series distributions? Mine says it can't find the module major-10-219. It's in modules.conf but locate and find don't locate or find it either.
Just because you have an entry in "/etc/modules.conf" (often symlinked to "/etc/conf.modules") it does not mean that it is going to load. All loadable kernel modules are loaded from the location: /lib/modules/[kernel-version]/ e.g.: /lib/modules/2.2.18/ then, the desired module is loaded thus: insmod /lib/modules/[kernel-version]/my_file.o to check that it has loaded, type: insmod and you'll get a list of loaded devices. To unload a device, type: rmmod /file Try it by hand, and if it works, I can help you tweak the startup scripts.
