I've got an Eicon Diva ISDN adapter that need it's module to be loaded via an init script since it needs a firmware to be loaded. I don't have the module listed in modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 but it continues to be autoloaded on boot. It used to not get autoloaded but I did a system update and now I can't get this thing right. I looked in /etc/udev and I can't find any file that makes reference to the divas module that's being loaded.

What else determines what modules get autoloaded at boot? I need to stop this module from getting autoloaded and let it get loaded properly with my init script in order to get my Asterisk PBX to start reliably.

There is a kernel option for autoloading modules (CONFIG_KMOD)...not sure if your problem is related though.

Put in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
Code:
blacklist evbug

Or whatever the module is called. Then run:
Code:
update-modules

To repopulate /etc/modprobe.conf
