Upgraded to 9.0 last weekend.

My network card uses the 8139too module - this loads and works fine no
problem. However for some reason Slack wants to load the 8139c module at
boot time, which naturally fails - there is only a reference to 8139too in
rc.netdevice.

The relevant section of dmesg is:

8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.25
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:0f.0
PCI: Sharing IRQ 11 with 00:02.2
eth0: RealTek RTL8139 Fast Ethernet at 0xd0884f00, 00:c0:26:75:f4:5f, IRQ 11
eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8139C'
scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
Vendor: LG Model: CD-RW CED-8083B Rev: 1.06
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
eth0: Setting half-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 0000.
8139cp 10/100 PCI Ethernet driver v0.0.7 (Feb 27, 2002)
8139cp 10/100 PCI Ethernet driver v0 (repeats 8 times)

So the thing is, how I can I prevent this autoloading from attempting to
execute as a result of autodetection? Or should I be looking elsewhere?
