for wireless (which has always worked with vanilla 2.6test kernels), but
the sound modules no longer load on boot. The also appears to happens
with a vanilla 2.6test kernel (2.6-test9-bk17). I can't correlate this
to another other updates that I have done. The modules load properly
with modprobe.
Anyone have any ideas on this?

I've tryed kernel-2.6.0-0.test9.1.90 yesterday. No sound at all (i810 audio
with 2.4, ECS K7S5A - SIS 735 chipset) even after I loaded every module from
the sound drivers. Kudzu complained thad my RTL8139C and 3Com 3C59x were removed
(I told it to do nothing) and after this that they were installed (do nothing
again) and they worked just fine.
Another disadvantage is that when I 'hdparm -Tt /dev/hda' with the 2.4 kernel
I'm getting 333MB/sec chached and 53MB/sec raw transfer vs 333MB/sec chached and
32MB/sec raw with 2.6 (80GB Baracuda/7200RPM).
ps: I found no scsi emulation (ide-scsi) and had to reconfigure my CD.
