https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=214249 ------- Comment #5 from jengelh@gmx.de 2006-10-27 09:01 MST ------- It is not blacklisted. If it was, `modprobe ide-cd` would probably be a no-op(?). No, I am just saying that there is no one that loads it automatically. Which is fine for my daily usage -- because there usually. is no CDROM drive by default. Where would I add that MODALIAS line? I would actually prefer udev (or its kernel part) to recognize this automagically. The basic kernel does it already: pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0 pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0 Probing IDE interface ide2... hde: TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-7002Bc, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive ide2 at 0x180-0x187,0x386 on irq 3 hde: ATAPI 16X CD-ROM drive, 128kB Cache ide-cs: hde: Vpp = 0.0 You can see similar IDE probing on boot, when no cdrom.ko nor ide-cs.ko is loaded. Couldn't udev (or its kernel part) pick that up and [generate uevents and] decide to load cdrom.ko/ide-cd.ko? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
