In both pnp.distmap and isapnp.aliases, please remove the "analog" line completely (as opposed to what your patch does). The reason is that the "ns558" driver already contains this alias without our help, see > > /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.alias > > Thanks for the report.

Yes for isapnp, you need to pass to modproble the card and device id. For your card it is for example cESS1868dESS1868dESS0000. Unfortunatly I don't have any isa device, so I don't know if it is possible to recover all these id from sysfs. If not perhaps make a patch to export them via sysfs. > 2) Currently with 2.6 kernels module-init-tools don't convert MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(isapnp, ...) to modules.isapnpmap entries. They understand only pnp and pnp_card device maps. Because of this limitation, any isapnp hardware detection script that relies only on modules.isapnpmap (or, equivalently, aliases) is less useful that it might be. E.g. 3com network cards are not detectable. What is the correct list to discuss that limitation? > You could found it in modules.alias ?
