Avoid installing the somewhat broken snd-intel8x0m driver?

[thully at umich.edu]

The reason I've proposed blacklisting this driver is because it totally breaks
the Conexant HSF driver on my system (I have to disable this driver before
the HSF driver will even SEE my modem).  If the SmartLink driver indeed
autoloads this, it probably would be best to just blacklist it for the sake of
making the
installation of HSF drivers easier.  Yes, I know they are unsupported
proprietary software, but this does no harm to free software and is only a
question of the behavior of non-free drivers (albeit important ones, as many
people - including me sometimes - still use dial-up).
