What i can do so that the kernel module iwl3945 don't be autoload at the boot ?

He is not on module.autoload.d/kernel ...

I have many modules (Alsa,nvidia,uvcvideo) which are loaded automaticaly but i don't know why...


I am interested to remove this autoload only for iwl3945

thx

I don't use many modules myself but I have read that udev can autoload
modules. May want to check that while waiting on a guru to come along.

Hope that helps.

As root:
echo "blacklist iwl3945" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

Hi!

But this line in:
/etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/anyname:
#don't load this module automaticly
blacklist iwl3945

Best regards,
