simple guess:

the same as /etc/modprobe.d/ but for from packages installed configs
to define clear override orders by knowing what are suer settings

The /usr/lib directories are for package installation. The /etc directories 
are for the admin. If the same named file is in both the /usr/lib and /etc 
directories only the /etc version is used.

Yes, I read this, but can't make head of it. Shall I take it that, as all
there mentioned directories:

/usr/lib/modprobe.d/
/etc/modprobe.d/
/run/modprobe.d/

are quite equivalent? When yes - we had there for long time
"/etc/modprobe.conf" and "/etc/modprobe.d/", thus why are there another two
directories?

Modprobe man pages mention second of them, but without any
explanation.


Sorry, "modules-load.d" has man page. But what "/usr/lib/modprobe.d"?


modules-load.d is for what modules to load. modprobe.d is for supplying 
configuration for doing the load. Some modules won't need configuration.

In F16? is new directory "/usr/lib/modules-load.d" and in F17 new
"/usr/lib/modprobe.d". For which purposes these directories serves?
Modprobe man pages mention second of them, but without any
explanation.

Thanks, Franta
