It seems a wishlist.  Well, I do not know if it is still relevant 4
years later.  If yes, how to make it happen?


All the best,

Is this bug report a reminder?  What could the next actionable step to
tackle it?

Otherwise, I am in favor to close it, or at least mark it as wishlist.

WDYT?

Cheers,

Indeed, I’ve made it a wishlist.

Back then it looked like it could be useful but apparently few people
miss that functionality.

Thanks,

It looks like this is now covered by kernel-module-loader-service-type,
going from (info "(guix) Linux Services") ?

There's an example using a custom modprobe.d/ddcci.conf snippet.

OK to close?
