If you have set all config options to 'y' or 'n' then there are no IB
kernel modules to load. I don't think anything is be printed by the
core IB stack so I wouldn't expect to see anything when it loads. You
could add a printk() to ib_core_init() if you're worried.
BTW, any particular reason you are using such an old kernel instead of
2.6.13 or 2.6.14-rc4?
