Making modprobe pcspkr stick with modprobe.preload?
I recently installed Fedora Core 2 and to get system beeps to work I have to use
modprobe pcspkr I read that to make this module automatically load when the system is booted I should add pcspkr to the /etc/modprobe.preload file. I created the file but the module does not appear to load at startup, if I do lsmod then pcspkr is not listed. What trick am I missing? Many thanks |
Hmm, am I the only one?

David,
Until someone gives you a better answer, you can add a line to this file: /etc/rc.d/rc.local I guess you'd add: /sbin/modprobe pcspkr The rc.local file is for commands that get run after all the commands, etc. are done for whatever runlevel you are booting into. This is where I add modprobe items. It works. I was hoping someone else would answer you with maybe a better suggestion. |
