that's cool :)
what config files do you mean - Kconfig or modprobe.conf (or equiv.)?

modprobe.conf. modutils's modprobe actually has all these built in,
which is pretty bad if you want to change on or introduce a new one.

Works for me (in case you want to send that direct), as long
as you fix the typo below. If you want, I'll send this patch via the
usual route.

You need to nail that one (that's a french/english joke).
Thanks !

Rather than hardcoded names in modprobe, modules can offer their own
aliases (which are overridden by config files).
Here are the IRDA dongle ones.
Please apply,
Rusty.
