That's disappointing. However, I can completely relate to your
frustration with the lack of module parameters. Linus are you
listening? 8) Hopefully he's back today and will take patches, and
then I can look forward to some bug reports from you...
The patches I have queued for Linus are:
1) Param support
2) /lib/modules directory structure & depmod reversion
3) module's init calls request_module loop fix (bttv and parport do
this in some configs).

Also, my stress_modules script gave the following warning then oops
from ide-cd on 2.5.51 SMP x86 (IDE is built-in):
