modules && /etc/rc.d/rc.modules


Sometimes I have problems with modules not loaded properly /etc/rc.d/rc.modules, is it recommended to add codes to load modules in other scripts in /etc/rc.d/.

Do the modules just need extra options to be given to work correctly?

If so you need to configure them with a file /etc/modprobe.d/

The line looks like this :-
options <module-name> <option=something>

<module-name> is the name of the kernel module
<option=something> is the option and the value to give

Other than this you should not need to modify anything else for modules to load.
