[gentoo-amd64] openrc & modules args

[gigli]

Hi

I upgraded to openrc on my gentoo system, i use it as a mythbackend + 
desktop. I need to pass an argument to the module dvb_usb_dib0700 to 
activate the low noise amplifier, but i can't get it to work. 
/etc/conf.d/modules looks like this

# You can define a list modules for a specific kernel version,
# a released kernel version, a main kernel version or just a list.
#modules_2_6_23_gentoo_r5="ieee1394 ohci1394"
modules_2_6="powernow-k8 dvb_usb_dib0700 cpufreq_ondemand"

# Give the modules some arguments if needed, per version if necessary.
module_dvb_usb_dib0700_args="force_lna_activation=1"

# You should consult your kernel documentation and configuration
# for a list of modules and their options.


What am i doing wrong. The old /etc/modules.d/options does not work i guess?

Thanks
Martin

This file is used by openrc's /etc/init.d/modules script. I suppose it
is called after you modules were loaded with kernel autoloading
mechanism that's why modules parameters where not passed. To pass
options kernel modules which are autoloaded by kernel it's better to
use /etc/modprobe.d/options and run modules-update after that.
