I don't remember if spaces matter when doing an insmod. I believe if you check out the latest info on the sim710 driver, you may not need to specify the irq of the controller. Here's the home page: http://www.sleepie.demon.co.uk/ncr53c710/. Anyone else have any input on the insmod parameters? Do spaces count when doing an insmod? Does anyone have the correct format for putting the parameters in /etc/conf.modules.

I have got it detected under redhat 6 with the module compiled into the kernel and passing "sim710=addr=0x8000,irq:11" to lilo on boot. Now I have upgraded to redhat 7 and want to load the sim710 as a module with: insmod sim710 addr:0x8000, irq:11 This fails saying the device is busy but these resources are corrent in the compaq system utiliy. Am I passing the resources to the module correctly?
