Bill - Perhaps I don't understand the process. How about those of us who have a play box where the hardware config changes a lot with time? Should not the script be run everytime it detects a diff between the most recent modules.conf and the modprobe.conf? Or something like that anyway. Seems that it should be trying to pick up changes more frequently anyway.
