   That can't really be true. There are plenty of other *.ko drivers in there   
   that do not get loaded, like   
    $ ls /lib/modules/2.6.22-suspend2-r1/kernel/drivers/input/keyboard/   
    lkkbd.ko newtonkbd.ko sunkbd.ko xtkbd.ko   
      
   Or are they listed in a file that I haven't found yet? (Not anywhere in   
   /etc/, that's for sure...)
