Re: [LUG] Loading a kernel module at startup

["Jeremy Pearson" <jeremy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks everyone for your help; case now closed.

Turns out that the network card driver module was loading fine at startup
(due to the added alias entry in /etc/modutils/aliases), but wasn't being
activated until the "ifconfig" command was subsequently manually issued.
Having made the necessary amendments to /etc/network/interfaces the network
is now coming to life automatically on startup, which is nice.

Thanks again;
Jeremy
