NAME

       discover-modprobe — kernel module loading using discover(1)

SYNOPSIS

       discover-modprobe [-n]  [-v]

Description

       discover-modprobe  loads  kernel  modules  identified  by  discover.  It will typically be
       invoked automatically at boot time.

Options

       -n        Echo the modprobe invocations instead of running them.

       -v        Be verbose.

Files

       /etc/discover-modprobe.conf
                 This configuration file defines the types of modules to  load  by  default,  and
                 specific modules not to load.

       /var/lib/discover/crash
                 A  crash  file written and erased each time discover-modprobe attempts to load a
                 module. If the file lingers, the computer  is  assumed  to  have  crashed  while
                 loading that module, and the module name is added to discover-modprobe.conf as a
                 module to skip in the future.
