You only need to list the modules in /etc/conf.d/modules (for OpenRC) or |
17 |
/etc/modules-load.d/*.conf (for systemd) if they would not otherwise be |
18 |
loaded. Just about any module that provides a driver for hardware that |
19 |
can be autodetected (that is, PCI, USB, etc.) will be auto-loaded by |
20 |
udev. Modules used to provide filters, etc. for iptables are autoloaded |
21 |
by iptables itself as needed. Some modules do not have anything that |
22 |
would cause them to be autoloaded (such as the vbox-* modules from |
23 |
VirtualBox), in which case you *would* need to explicitly load them. |
