Hi, everybody! I installed gentoo according to Gentoo Handbook , then I login gentoo . But I found that I couldn't use wpa_supplicant for scanning netcard device failed . I think that means the netcard module not loaded, so I type lsmod and the output have only one line-Modules , according to the Handbook I have written many modules to the file /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel2.6 though I don't know those modules respond for what.  
 Now the question is  that I don't know whether gentoo loaded those modules that in file kernel2.6 which I created.
 Handbook said that modules in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel2.6 will be loaded automatically, but why there is only one line in output when I use command lsmod? 
 I’m going to be crazy! When I use gentoo I really realize that the knowlege needed is far more than I just have, I have to acknowledge that I'm a freshman.So please help me.

How did you build your kernel? using genkernel or manually?

Can you load the modules manually?

Which version of baselayout are you using? Baselayout2, which has been in
stable for some time, uses /etc/conf.d/modules rather than the file you
used. If the handbook still contains baselayout1 advice, it's time for
someone to raise a bug report.

I used to get my domain frpm OpenSRS until they put a knife in my back, which
has resulted in two things:

My being completely separated from "chuckr@chuckr.org", and instead using
"chuckr@telenix.org" (thank you, GoDaddy!).  I'm going to see if the BBB is
interested in talking to OpenSRS at all.

The other one is the one I don't know how to handle: my existing subscriptions
to chuckr.org need to be administered (stopped) but only can be done from that
dead address, chuckr.org.  I can only use telenix.org, but I can't stop the
chuckr.org one from there.

How can I stop what has become spam?  I can't see any listing for any human on
the lists to help me, in the gentoo lists page.  Does anyone have any ideas?  On
many other lists, I've already done it be identifying one person who could
access the lists in question, and make sure that chuckr.org no longer existed.
Most, they were also willing to give me a complete list of where I was attached
to, to aid me in moving them.  I finished the FreeeBSD, maemo, and xorg lists
that way, and now we're waiting on gentoo ...

Ok, I've read this a couple of times.  And, admittedly, I have a hard
time understanding it in general.  But, specifically, I have been
wondering WTF this has to do with Gentoo?

Because Gentoo-user is the last list I haven't been able to fix, or even to
locate a human who is in charge of it (as access to the administrative files).
I was rather hoping that someone in that position might speak up.  It's worked
so far in two of my situations, so I thought to try it again.  It's the kind of
thing where, if you know it';s going to happen in advance, it's very easy to
deal with, but if it surprises you, there doesn't seem to be any way to cancel
the old address in favor of the new one.  I have the new one already working,
it's getting rid of the old one I can't accomplish.

You know, I'm sorry if this insults you, but when I find what seems to be a
dead-end with no solutions, I tend to get a bit creative.  To get rid of me on
this, make any suggestion at all that is even slightly reasonable (if I'm
grabbing at straws, I'm not going to be too choosy).
