I had problems after updating recently where absolutely nothing could
get modprobe'd, so I tried manually modprobing things and received
errors about lines in /etc/modprobe.conf.dist. I tried commenting out
the lines and it just made errors with other lines. I ended up just
renaming /etc/modprobe.conf.dist and modprobe started working fine
again. Don't know if this will help anyone but having modprobe is
certainly a good thing.
