I was just trying to suggest things that might try to load modules;
I've seen console messages like these with older versions of kudzu.
The most plausible explanation I can see is that some process is
trying to read files in /dev/, such as some kind of backup, or maybe
a misconfigured tripwire or other tool. Each time a /dev/xxx file
is opened for a non-existent device, the kernel calls /sbin/modprobe
with {block,char}-major-XX to see if it can handle the device.
Do you have any cron jobs running at that time, or has anyone run
a manual process that might have opened those device files?
What does this server do again?
