Writing Modprobe.conf
by Rajen M. Parekh 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hi, Whenever I want to use my printer, I have to give the command "modprobe lp" to load the lp module. When the system starts up it load parport & parport_pc modules but not lp. I have now put the command in rc.local file so that the module gets loaded when the system starts. But my question is how does certain modules get automatically loaded when the system starts ? To be more specific, how do I configure /etc/modprobe.conf file to load modules which I want, automatically. For example the lines, alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0 automatically loads the various sound modules like, (snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer) I want to know how/what do I do with the /etc/modprobe.conf file to make module "lp" to load automatically. I tried adding the following, but that does not work alias char-major-6* lp I tried many other ways but can't figure out how to do it. In other words, I am not able to understand how the kernel automatically loads certain modules. For example, when I start pppd (dial-up ), the following modules get inserted automatically when connected successfully, Module Size Used by ppp_deflate 4992 0 zlib_deflate 20888 1 ppp_deflate zlib_inflate 16896 1 ppp_deflate bsd_comp 5504 0 ppp_async 9088 1 crc_ccitt 1920 1 ppp_async ppp_generic 24980 7 ppp_deflate,bsd_comp,ppp_async slhc 6528 1 ppp_generic There are no entries for pppd in the /etc/modprobe.conf file, still the modules get loaded. Then why does not "lp" modules get loaded why I, for instance, give the command "lpr" . I tried reading the man pages but not of much help. Any pointers to other documentation would also be good. I tried to find something with google but no luck. Regards, Rajen. -- ... The trouble with doing something right the first time is that nobody appreciates how difficult it was.

Re: [ILUG-BOM] VoIP data transfer rates.

You would be paying roughly one unit per 3300 secs ~ one unit per 125 secs. This does not include protocol overheads. A unit is Rs1.20 per MB as per MTNL rates. > > I am trying to work out the total cost of a VoIP service. > Got the call rates but one component is the bandwidth usage. > Since it works well with 256kbps and above, and both VSNL and MTNL > do not have unlimited plans for 256 kb/s and above therefore the > question. VSNL has an unlimited 128kbps plan for Rs.24000 p.a. which is good enough for voip. rgds jtd
