+ reads files from the above directories which contain kernel
+ modules to load during boot in a static list. Each configuration
+ file is named in the style of
+ <filename>/etc/modules-load.d/<replaceable>program</replaceable>.conf</filename>.
+ Note that it is usually a better idea to rely on the automatic
+ module loading by PCI IDs, USB IDs, DMI IDs or similar triggers
+ encoded in the kernel modules themselves instead of static
+ configuration like this. In fact, most modern kernel modules are
+ prepared for automatic loading already.</para>

+ <title>Configuration Format</title>
+
+ <para>The configuration files should simply contain a list of
+ kernel module names to load, separated by newlines. Empty lines
+ and lines whose first non-whitespace character is # or ; are
+ ignored.</para>
