Oh, crazy, sounds like a complicated mess, well guess each person will have to research their distro for any differences and then report back and add to the documentation on what that distros changes to the /etc/modprobe.conf file were (won't it just work though still, just add onto the other configs in /etc/modprobe.d, like /etc/profile does). At least it will work if everything is the simple standard of the modprobe utilities unaltered by distros (which I just wanted a basic outline, figure beyond that we'd get to specific and make it much too complicated and hope a person knows their distro before installing outside-kernel modules).
