well the memory usage was my main consideration...

and the other fact was.. that if i had.. (like i do) two cards.. which i
wanted to use (what i sometimes do) i would have to unload the module and
run another init script to load the module... when i gould only use
modprobe module (made my point?)

well that is true.. =(
