With into /etc/default/grub :

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"

# this above is default config after install



# cat /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf
options i915 modeset=1
# this above is default config after install

and /etc/# cat /etc/modules
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.
# Parameters can be specified after the module name.
# this above is default config after install
loop
