Modules are not autoloading since initial install with gentoo-sources
2.6.25. I have since upgraded to kernel 2.6.27 but the issue persists.
In my previous Gentoo install and other Gentoo installs, autoloading
modules worked. I do not know why they are not loading in this case.


I have the following:

mythfe01 mythtv # cat /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6
abituguru

ftdi_sio
lirc_i2c

Yet on reboot, these modules don't load. Loading manually works fine:

mythfe01 mythtv # modprobe abituguru
mythfe01 mythtv # modprobe ftdi_sio
mythfe01 mythtv # modprobe lirc_i2c

Can anyone tell me where my error may be?

Thanks,

Drew

That's /etc/conf.d/modules in baselayout 2. Check which baselayout you're
using.

Do you use openrc/baselayout2?

I think I read something after one of my upgrades that said loading
modules was changing. If you keep your logs, check the messages that
appear when portage installs a package. I only use nvidia here as a
module so I didn't pay much attention after the reboot worked.

I also checked emerge.log but I didn't recognize the package. Maybe
this will help tho.
