Bon, gia' che c'ero mi sono ripassato il manuale delle
GNUvani MANmutte :-)

modconf allows you to choose modules from a menu, attempt to load them
into the kernel, and then will set things to automatically load the
module on boot. All it does is add the module name to /etc/modules,
and possibly create a file in /etc/modutils if any special options are
needed. The files in /etc/modutils are concatenated together to form
/etc/modules.conf, a task handles by update-modules.
------------------------
One thing to remember with Debian is that they do modules.conf in a
different way from other distributions. There is a directory called
/etc/modutils -- add your ALSA stuff (aliases, options pre-install,
post-install etc.) to that directory in a file called (say) alsasound
and the use update-modules to update modules.conf. (If you just manually
put things into modules.conf, then when you add something that adds
modules it will destroy yours alsa setup).
------------------------
update-modules
modules.conf or conf.modules on debian is a file created by update-modules
from the files in /etc/modutils. Basically those files get concatenated
into the modules.conf.
