I don't need my lan adapter often so I compiled it's driver as a module: i8169. It is not listed in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 but still gets loaded:
Code: | floppes flo # lsmod
Module Size Used by
r8169 32124 0
mii 4792 1 r8169
nvidia 8108616 32 |
How can I stop it from loading? |

Add
to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and run (as root):
I don't see any reason to do this though, it won't slow your system down to have it loaded and it's just annoying to manually load the module when you need it. |
