do you mean
/etc/modprobe.conf

the module-names are not the same as in 2.4.x kernel (FC1)
afair it should be something like  snd-xxxxx

eg. under  fc3
# grep snd /etc/modprobe.conf
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 && 
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; 
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0


move your /etc/*.conf
start  kudzu  and/or  system-config-soundcard
diff the new und old *.conf
