[Bug 1404509] Re: [precise] udev does not automatically load modules

[Martin Pitt]

Note that this is not unambiguously regression free -- in precise we did
not yet have kmod, and udev still calls the modprobe binary instead of
using libkmod. So as Kay already pointed out, we'd call modprobe a lot
more with this, even on the default precise kerneL (3.2).
