module mobile-ip6 finally loaded!

Hello all!

After several days of sorting out various problems and numerous mes-
sages to this list I finally managed to load Mobile-IPv6!

And here is how: within script

  /etc/init.d/mobile-ip6

there are two lines

  [ -x $LSMOD ] && $LSMOD | grep $MIPV6_MODULE &>/dev/null && \
    echo "$MIPV6_MODULE already installed" && exit 1

which wrongly report the module as being loaded (I'm not an UNIX ex-
pert which is why I don't understand these lines completely. It might
have been better to split this line into several if statements...)

By just commenting them out (which may be dangerous) I got the module
loaded - and not much later got a care-of address from the router!

Could please anybody correct this script not to let other non-experts
run into the same pitfall?

Thanks a lot!
