[PLUG] 2.6 kernel woes

[phillip]

I believe your problem doesn't lie in that /proc/pci doesn't exist, you might 
have to enable Devfs, even though it's depreciated. I believe that I remember 
having to do so. Another alternative would be to try to figure out a way of 
doing it with udev, but I know nothing about udev.
