FC2: Unknown parameter `' in my /var/log/messages

[Dexter Ang]

Hi folks,

Nothing critical here. Just want some enlightenment on what's causing 
this. I keep getting the message "Unknown parameter `'" in my 
/var/log/messages for each module that I have in my modprobe.conf. 
Example of the 'error' is:

Aug 18 02:15:40 portablepoch kernel: snd_intel8x0m: Unknown parameter `'

The end part has a backtick (below the tilde) and a single quote. Here's 
my modprobe.conf file:

# Disable floppy drive
install floppy /bin/true
# Turn off IPv6
alias net-pf-10 off
alias ipv6 off

# Fedora auto-configured + pcspkr addition
alias eth0 e100
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe pcspkr && /sbin/modprobe \
--ignore-install snd-intel8x0 && /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null \
2>&1 || :
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; \
}; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
alias usb-controller uhci-hcd

# Added by dex for snd-intel8x0 (Audio) and snd-intel8x0m (Modem)
alias snd-card-1 snd-intel8x0m
alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0
alias sound-slot-1 snd-intel8x0m
install snd-intel8x0m /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0m && \
/usr/local/sbin/slmodemd --alsa --country=PHILIPPINES --perm=0666 hw:1 \
 >/dev/null 2>&1 &
options snd-intel8x0 index=0
options snd-intel8x0m index=1

# Turn off debug output of acx100 D-Link DWL-650+
options acx_pci debug=0x0

Anyway, everything works (sound, modem, wireless card), but I'm just 
wondering why I get these in my logs (specifically for snd-intel8x0, 
snd-intel8x0m, acx_pci). I'm thinking missing quotes on my options? But 
just haven't had the chance to try. It's pretty hard to do a search 
which has backticks and single quotes, as that's what I've already tried.

Thanks in advance folks. Will sleep now.
