Right.

I'd say no, Prefdm is one of the latest services being started.
It may suffice the graphics driver case, it's very likely much too late for
other modules, because services before prefdm will require activated kmods
to be able to start up properly (printer drivers. network drivers (consider
ldap/nis-based authentication, nfs-based-autofs etc.)
I might see if I can get Lennart to chime in on this problem. I can
think of a couple of ways to solve this dilemma but they're dependent
on what exactly systemd can handle.
What we need is some way for an akmod package to tell systemd when it
needs to run and have systemd understand that it should run on the
earliest requirement of all installed akmod packages and ignore the
rest.
