Glancing for possible upstream package, Debian Sid has a more recent version which deals with an empty /lib/modprobe.d/ folder like on that Utopic installation. So it seems a good idea to upgrade kmod.
https://packages.debian.org/sid/libkmod-dev kmod (18-2) unstable; urgency=medium * postinst: move any modules parameters from /etc/modules to a new /etc/modprobe.d/etc-modules-parameters.conf file. (Closes: #627949) * initramfs-hook: do not fail if /lib/modprobe.d/ is empty. * Add the man page for kmod(8). (Closes: #665873) * Document depmod --show in depmod(8). (Closes: #687435) -- Marco d'Itri <[email protected]> Wed, 17 Sep 2014 03:50:34 +0200 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1372035 Title: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'off': Function not implemented To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kmod/+bug/1372035/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
