[Bug 584812] Re: [Maverick] uinput kernel module is not loaded automatically

[Martin Pitt]

Please let's not do modprobe calls in init scripts (or generally during
boot), this is way too much overhead, and also it's not necessary on
machines which do not have bluetooth.

There are three generally accepted ways to get the module loaded:

 - add some sensible modaliases to uinput (which doesn't seem adequate here, though)
 - make it a dependency of the bluetooth kernel module
 - built it into the kernel (which will be faster than unconditionally modprobing it during boot).

** Summary changed:

- [Maverick] bluez init script should try to load uinput kernel module
+ [Maverick] uinput kernel module is not loaded automatically

** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: bluez (Ubuntu Maverick)
       Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix

** Changed in: bluez (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix
