You were correct that it was a problem with the kernel needing to be rebuilt after adding/changing files to the /etc/modules-load.d and /etc/modprobe.d directory.Made a copy of the existing /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img file and re-ran the command to rebuild the kernel file:# dracut -f /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img $(uname -r)I went back and checked the man pages on modules-load.d and modprobe.d and neither mentions having to run dracut or mkinitrd after adding file to these directories. Lesson learned.

Re: Fedora 19 assistance on modprobe /etc/modprobe.d/ .conf file being ignored

 I need some assistance in troubleshooting problem with passing a modprobe 
 parameter to the lirc_zilog module.

 I'm running Fedora 19 with the most recent updates:

 # uname -r
 3.12.11-201.fc19.x86_64

 I have a file /etc/modprobe.d/lirc_zilog.conf file that contains the

 This file previously worked to disable the IR receive mode on the lirc_zilog 
 module but something seems to have changed to prevent this from happening.

 The above parameter is being ignored since the lirc_zilog module is running 
 both transmit and receive.

 Here is the command to receive IR signals:

I think you're saying that if you manually unload the module and then load it 
the .conf file is honored and loaded as you want.

If so, did you run dracut to create a new initramfs with the changes you made?

No, what I mean by manual reload is the following command:

modprobe lirc_zilog tx_only=1
