Here's my modprobe.conf:

[root at lcas200 etc]# cat modprobe.conf
alias eth0 tg3
alias eth1 e1000
alias eth2 e1000
alias eth3 e1000
alias eth4 e1000
alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase
alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptscsih
alias scsi_hostadapter2 cciss
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd

And my lsmod:

[root at lcas200 etc]# lsmod

I don't see anywhere in the kernel .config that calls out wether an
"mii" anything is a module vs builtin.   Would it be under another name?

Thanks,
Travis
