how to load a module

[Adel ESSAFI]

Hi
I get this message on F13.
however, the driver has loaded correctly on F12.

[root at localhost ~]# modprobe -a
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.34.6-47.fc13.i686/kernel/drivers/media/video/easycap.ko

WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong
into /etc/modprobe.d/.
WARNING: Module
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.34.6_47.fc13.i686/kernel/drivers/media/video/easycap.ko
not found.
[root at localhost ~]# lsmod  | grep easy
[root at localhost ~]#

Can you help please
