that's old kernel 2.0 stuff... in 2.2 it's in the kernel, try a
cat /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe
modules.conf exists to "program" the module loading, it is used by
modules.conf. The kernel will call the program stored in
/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe whenever it needs something it doesn't have
yet, and modprobe tries to figure out what module it should insert with
what options using the data in modules.conf.
