Patch for /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

Hi all,

I tried Knoppix 5.3.1 on a Lenovo ThinkCentre (A-Series) with an Aironet
wireless network controller. In contrast to previous Knoppix versions, the
system did not start up correctly. First, it hang unresponsively for three
minutes and then X did not start up at all.

It looks like Knoppix got bitten by the same bug as Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/189398

You should fix this in the next release. Patch is attached.

Ronny

Makes sense. Thanks for the hint, I added them to
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/blacklist.knoppix
