Is it clear now? Thanks, yea this makes your intention clear to me. I think what you describe is an odd way to initialize both modules, and I'd like to suggest to try to come up with the reverse approach where kvm.ko loads your other module via request_module() in kvm_arch_init(). But as you said, this way does not confict with other archs, therefore I'm fine with it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
