You used an invalid parameter (or invalid systax)

I use the 8139 nic in many machines and the only related line in my
modprobe.conf is "alias eth0 8139too"

When I do it manually I do "modprobe eth0" or "modprobe 8139too".
I NEVER have to use any options with my systems for that NIC, because it
gets the address and irq automatically.
