>From the modprobe man page:
Modprobe will automatically load all base modules needed in a module
stack, as described by the dependency file modules.dep. If the loading
of one of these modules fails, the whole current stack of modules
loaded in the current session will be unloaded automatically.
Basically, modprobe automatically resolves module dependencies based on the
current modules.dep. Insmod only tries to insert the named module and fails
if the dependencies are not already met.
No bug, just the behavior of the program. You probably want to stick to
modprobe anyway.
