Hi,
After the last update my MODULES array in rc.conf is ignored. Nothing changed by myself. I just removed kde (because of file conflicts), reinstalled it again and ran pacman -Syu.
Also, I can't see if there is any error during boot. Lines go up too fast. I also disabled clearing of boot messages, but the buffer is too short to get to th interesting part (just a few lines actually).
In this last pacman update initscripts got updated, but I synced my rc.conf to rc.conf.pacnew and the problem persists (actually, it is a 3 weeks installation, minor changes there).
By now, I "patched" my system by loading the modules array in rc.local and restarting the network from there.
Any help would be appreciated.

What modules do you need exactly?
It might be https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/25308
Check your /etc/modprobe.d - you might be surprised :-)

I think that's the problem.
Two files appeared in /etc/modprobe.d that no package owns:
- /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist_net.conf
- /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist_sound.conf
And the content is just blacklisting my network and sound drivers... weird:
blacklist_net.conf:
blacklist mii
blacklist r8169
blacklist_audio.conf:
blacklist pcspkr
blacklist ac97_bus
blacklist snd-seq-device
blacklist snd-hwdep
blacklist snd-page-alloc
blacklist snd-pcm
blacklist snd-rawmidi
blacklist snd-timer
blacklist snd
blacklist snd-mpu401-uart
blacklist snd-ak4xxx-adda
blacklist snd-cs8427
blacklist snd-i2c
blacklist snd-ac97-codec
blacklist snd-hda-codec
blacklist snd-hda-intel
blacklist snd-ice1712
blacklist snd-ice17xx-ak4xxx
blacklist soundcore
So basically, almost all my modules array got blacklisted automatically.
Thank you,

Extracts from the bug report: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/25308
1.
@Everyone: a workaround until we have sorted this out is to remove your *_blacklist.conf files.
Make sure you just remove unhandled files. This command will help you:
pacman -Qo /etc/modprobe.d/*
2. To resolve network device preference issues:
Create a file like /etc/udev/rules.d/10-network.rules with this content:
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTRS{address}=="00:aa:bb:cc:dd:01", NAME="lan0"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTRS{address}=="00:aa:bb:cc:dd:02", NAME="lan1"
in some weird cases (...) you'll have to add more details to the udev rules to distinguish them
3.
For audio devices you may use this entry for modprobe.conf:
options snd slots=snd_virtuoso,snd_hda_intel
