AFAIK, this is only for module auto-loading. Stuff like configuration |
| 10 |
options of modules, blacklisting, etc, still go in /etc/modprobe.d/. |
| 11 |
But all files placed there, need to have a ".conf" suffix. And packages |
| 12 |
still place files there. It's not deprecated. For example, run this: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
equery belongs /etc/modprobe.d/* |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
and you'll get a list of packages that actually placed files there. If |
| 17 |
you have modules you wish to get loaded automatically on boot, only then |
| 18 |
put entries for them in /etc/conf.d/modules. |
