I've seen this recently with the nvidia module. The fix was to edit
/etc/modprobe.conf and remove the trailing whitespace from the options
line. If you have been using system-config-network lately, whenever
you save, it rewrites /etc/modprobe.conf and adds a space to the end
of all options lines. Obviously, some (all?) modules don't parse the
options correctly if there is extra trailing whitespace (which seems
like a bad situation). Anyway, there is a bugzilla entry on the
system-config-network:
