modprobe should be able to resolve such dependencies. If you have to
use insmod, you'll need to load the required modules first. It may be
tricky to figure out. You could just try loading all modules you have
in a loop until they all load. That way you'll find the dependencies.

ath_pci is a module from MadWifi. Yet the only reference to
ath_config_crypto_get Google can find is your message.

My guess is that you have some proprietary Atheros driver on the system.
It shouldn't be a big deal that it fails to load, but you may want to
remove it to see error messages that really matter.
