I had this problem with a RH9 install. Instead of modutils, upgrade the the
latest module-init-tools from ftp://kernel.org.
The problem is that most of the module loading code has been moved from
userspace to kernel code to make module loading more portable. Be sure to
follow the upgrade instructions carefully. If done correctly it will keep
your old modutils in case you load a 2.4.x kernel and will default to the new
module-init-tools for 2.6.x kernels.
