I put a modified suggestion (to use /etc/modprobe.conf) in an appropriate section of the release notes source:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Multimedia
The release notes that appear on the ISO are already frozen for F7; this change should appear in the Web-only notes that are updated and released with F7, as well as in any updates to the fedora-release-notes package.
Thanks for your release note.
Your suggestion does not work. I changed /etc/modprobe.conf as follows:
[root@slowpoke log]# cat /etc/modprobe.conf alias eth0 8139too alias scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx install snd-sbawe
rc.local is the default; i.e.
[root@slowpoke log]# cat /etc/rc.local #!/bin/sh # # This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts. # You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't # want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
Upon boot I got the multiple errors for modprobe.conf; i.e.
May 4 23:09:00 slowpoke modprobe: WARNING: /etc/modprobe.conf line 3: ignoring bad line starting with 'install'
Is "install" a new command for FC7? It does not work for FC6. Placing the modprobe command into /etc/rc.local definitely works.
