+
+I have grepped in /etc/rc.d for sdhci_pci and there was no output.
+
+i have only /etc/modprobe.conf  but in /etc/modprobe.preload i have 2
+sdhci_pci entries:
+
+nvram
+sdhci_pci
+sdhci_pci
+evdev
+
+i dont know why are there 2 entries of sdhci_pci, but if i remove one,
+when i reboot i get again 2 entries.
