What you'rel looking for is the file /etc/modules.

In this file you can list the modules you wish to load on startup.

For example my /etc/mosules looks like:
[~]> cat /etc/modules
usb-uhci
audio

modprobe will take care of any dependencies.

You probably don't need to touch /etc/modules.conf

2.2.18 has usb support, but 2.4.x will give you the best lovin'.
