Yes, it still is.

The changes you suggested are trivial indeed and hwere is what my
scsi.agent file has:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
dumont:~# grep sd_mod /etc/hotplug/scsi.agent
    0)		TYPE=disk ;	MODULES=sd_mod ;;
    7)		TYPE=mod ;	MODULES=sd_mod ;;
    14)		TYPE=rbc-disk ;  MODULE=sd_mod ;;
dumont:~# 
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I think that it is working.

Yes, sbp2 is automatically loaded when the device is connected. But, for
some reason, the sd_mod module doesn't. :-(

I have uploaded dmesg's and lsmod's and other information to
<http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito/bug/>.

I think that I did it detailed enough (just after booting the system, after
plugging the device and after manually loading the sd_mod module) so that
you can see whatever is interesting.

Of course, I can provide you with any information that you think might be
useful.


Thanks, Rogério.
