Doh, indeed. However that means that udev calls modprobe and the modprobe
decides to not load the module right?

What I meant was that I looked at udev/etc/udev/debian/ of the udev src distribution.
I am doing embedded development and I don't have this file (directory actually).
Shouldn't it autoload the module in such a case?

Thanks anyway.
