--- Comment #20 from Joachim Gleissner 2007-11-27 07:29:59 MST ---
To finally address this, how should we proceed in the case that are two drivers
for the same device? We cannot simply blacklist one of the drivers, as the set
of supported cards may differ. This is definitely the case for orinoco and
hostap, as orinoco supports Hermes chipsets besides Prism2. It may be the case
for PrismGT cards as well, as p54 might not support FullMAC devices (not sure
about this). I the past, I did blacklist all drivers and added lots of
alias-lines to modprobe config, but this is quite a PITA. So far, udev simply
loads all matching drivers, which is probably not what the user wants. Is there
some mechanism in udev that could help us? There a reasons to not use
re-binding, as Kay stated.
