61 | reads files from the above directories which contain kernel | |
62 | modules to load during boot in a static list. Each configuration | |
63 | file is named in the style of | |
64 | <filename>/etc/modules-load.d/<replaceable>program</replaceable>.conf</filename>. | |
65 | Note that it is usually a better idea to rely on the automatic | |
66 | module loading by PCI IDs, USB IDs, DMI IDs or similar triggers | |
67 | encoded in the kernel modules themselves instead of static | |
68 | configuration like this. In fact, most modern kernel modules are | |
69 | prepared for automatic loading already.</para> | |

73 | <title>Configuration Format</title> | |
74 | ||
75 | <para>The configuration files should simply contain a list of | |
76 | kernel module names to load, separated by newlines. Empty lines | |
77 | and lines whose first non-whitespace character is # or ; are | |
78 | ignored.</para> | |
