I doubt it. insmod and modprobe do pretty much the same thing, except
that modprobe has some magic added. If you run "insmod ./smsc47m1.ko",
then a subsequent "modprobe smsc47m1" is a no-op: modprobe sees that the
module is already loaded and does nothing.
If you want to load the driver at boot time, you have 2 options:
1* Use insmod, with the full path to the new module file.
2* Copy the new module file over the old one in /lib/modules, and then
you can call modprobe.
Maybe you did 2* last time, and don't remember the step where you
copied the module file around.
