Did you try _Linux Module HOWTO_ ?  To quote direct:

- ----------------- quote -----------------
  You could add these lines as well, but they are only cosmetic:

               alias net-pf-3 off      # no ax25 module available (yet)
               alias net-pf-4 off      # if you don't use the ipx module
               alias net-pf-5 off      # if you don't use the appletalk module

  Finally, for the purists: You can name the modprobe configuration
  either /etc/conf.modules or /etc/modules.conf, since modprobe knows
  what to do in each case...
