    The really easy way!

    install modconf (aptitude install modconf AS root)

    run modconf

    locate and select the module you want to load

    if it's already loaded it will ask you if you want to unload... say yes then
    procede to next step

    if not already loaded it will ask if you want to load it... say yes

    it will ask you for command line arguments... enter any necessary

    select ok and it will load it immediately and on subsequent reboots

    Good Luck,

    Joe
