[SOLVED]Get [FAIL] when loading user specified modules.

Question

That is it, when the system is booting i get a [FAIL] message when loading user specified modules after upgrading udev, and the kmod new module handling or something as say in the news. I dont have a modprobe.conf or a modprobe.conf.pacsave file either and creating a modprobe.conf file doesn't solve the problem. The strange thing is that the modules are loaded anyways. I mean the ones that are specified in rc.conf. I dont know if the system [FAIL] to load that modules or others...The system works fine for now too.
Thanks.
PD: sorry if you notice my poor english.

Answer 1

I had the same problem and removing the governor performance from rc.conf solved the problem. I tried however to remove both governors and only leave powernow-k8 (this is the only one that works for me) leaving rc.conf like this:
MODULES=(brcmsmac powernow-k8)
When I boot the laptop and check which governors are available and being used I get the following:
[netlak@soulrebel ~]$ cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 008: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009

analyzing CPU 0:
driver: powernow-k8
CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
maximum transition latency: 8.0 us.
hardware limits: 800 MHz - 2.10 GHz
available frequency steps: 2.10 GHz, 1.50 GHz, 800 MHz
available cpufreq governors: performance
current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 2.10 GHz.
The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency is 2.10 GHz.
This like as if the ondemand governor would not be available but when unplugging the laptop and check again I get this:
[netlak@soulrebel ~]$ cpufreq-info
cpufrequtils 008: cpufreq-info (C) Dominik Brodowski 2004-2009

current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 2.10 GHz.
The governor "ondemand" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency is 800 MHz.
This shows that the ondemand module can be autoloaded when needed, so I leave rc.conf only with powernow-k8.
Thanks for your help.
