+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &quot;fgrep ehci /lib/modules/3.8.3-desktop-2.mga3/modules.alias&quot;):

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; That means that ehci matches both:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - 0x104A 0xCC00 (probably a device that reports a broken/bogus class)
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - any PCI device whose class is PCI_CLASS_SERIAL_USB_EHCI
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Note that for this one:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - lsmod reports ehci_pci
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - modinfo reports the real fs path: ehci-pci
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; - lspci -vvk reports: ehci-pci
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I understand. It is the kernel itself (and associated tools) that mix
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; and match underscore and dash. Hence the need for a conversion patch.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> not really, it just means that in the kernel - are mapped to _; modprobe
+</I>&gt;<i> tools handle both cases, just modinfo reports the filename which can
+</I>&gt;<i> include '-', but it can still handle both.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> lspci and most tools just report it as it's really named (depending on
+</I>&gt;<i> filename). modules.dep and modules.descr, etc... has the name as it is as
+</I>&gt;<i> well, meaning there can be '-' in the name.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> i just see this workaround being effective to handle lstdetect, which
+</I>&gt;<i> somehow forces all of it being lowercase...
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> i don't know how much of lstdetect is hardcoded and how much of it is
+</I>&gt;<i> generated, but imho the cleanest way would be to fix lstdetect, so that it
+</I>&gt;<i> gives the proper module names...
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> i've been looking at a way to fix the module list window for choosing, but
+</I>&gt;<i> the problem isn't as simple as i thought, since insmod looks at
+</I>&gt;<i> filenames... which is another workaround.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> @thierry: i donno what you think of it, but imo:
+</I>&gt;<i> A) fixing lstdetect would be the cleanest way (maybe not the simplest)
+</I>&gt;<i> B) perhaps in the comparing i can workaround this, but the compare code will
+</I>&gt;<i> not be as simple as it should...
+</I>
+forgot to mention option C:
+
+C) using kmod in stage1
+
+but option C might not be as easy and will increase the stage1 size; and
+raises the question if stage2 is actually still needed then...?
