Googling for fedora /etc/modules

        Just a quick question. I'm used to Debian where modules are
loaded from        /etc/modules, but I don't see such a file in Fedora.
Does anyone happen        to know what the Fedora equivalent is called?


    There isn't one. Fedora generally auto-detects hardware and loads
the    applicable module(s). Is there something you're having a problem
with?


It also uses /etc/modprobe.conf

I also use debian, so unfortunately I am unable to verify the
information. However it would seem that you need to use
/etc/modprobe.conf

Hope this helps,
