"modprobe can (un)load a stack of modules, passing each module options (when\n" \

"pass each module it loads.\n" \
"\n" \
"The configuration file is searched (in order) amongst:\n" \
"\n" \
" /etc/modprobe.conf (2.6 only)\n" \
" /etc/modules.conf\n" \
" /etc/conf.modules (deprecated)\n" \
"\n" \
"They all have the same syntax (see below). If none is present, it is\n" \
"_not_ an error; each loaded module is then expected to load without\n" \
"options. Once a file is found, the others are tested for.\n" \
"\n" \
"/etc/modules.conf entry format:\n" \
"\n" \
" alias <alias_name> <mod_name>\n" \
" Makes it possible to modprobe alias_name, when there is no such module.\n" \
" It makes sense if your mod_name is long, or you want a more reprenstative\n" \
" name for that module (eg. 'scsi' in place of 'aha7xxx').\n" \
" This makes it also possible to use a different set of options (below) for\n" \
" the module and the alias.\n" \
" A module can be aliased more than once.\n" \
"\n" \
" options <mod_name|alias_name> <symbol=value ...>\n" \
" When loading module mod_name (or the module aliased by alias_name), pass\n" \
" the \"symbol=value\" pairs as option to that module.\n" \
"\n" \
"Sample /etc/modules.conf file:\n" \
"\n" \
" options tulip irq=3\n" \
" alias tulip tulip2\n" \

"\n" \
"Other functionality offered by 'classic' modprobe is not available in\n" \
"this implementation.\n" \
"\n" \
"If module options are present both in the config file, and on the command line,\n" \
"then the options from the command line will be passed to the module _after_\n" \
"the options from the config file. That way, you can have defaults in the config\n" \
"file, and override them for a specific usage from the command line.\n"
