	From what I remember, Redhat does, out of the box, come with all
of the modules compiled and installed already. However, actually
*activating* the proper module at boot time the "redhat way", I do not
know. Usually though, I'd add a line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local. I'd bet that
using linuxconf may prove more "redhat correct".
