Re: check for loaded kernel module

[Martin Pala]

Hi,

the problem was, that the procfs files have zero size on almost all platforms 
(except Solaris). Before the match test is performed, monit compares whether 
there is some content to test - because the size=0 it decided to skip as if 
there is no content.

The problem is fixed in Monit 5.4 which was release today.

Regards,
Martin
