You can avoid loading the modules in the first place by commenting out the corresponding lines in /etc/modules.conf (or /etc/modprobe.conf - you don't specify if it's Tao 1 or 4). You might also need to disable kudzu, which has the ability of putting these lines back in. > Also I don't like to have unneccesary drivers loaded.
