I'm using 2.1.123-pre2, which fixed a few bugs in 122 and 123-pre1. I have no problems loading modules. (actually, I had no problems loading modules in the previous two buggy kernels either, but the sound modules were crashing sometimes for SoundBlaster 16. Now they work.)
I have my modules in /lib/modules/2.1.123, and so 'depmod -a' works fine. (I have attatched my '/etc/conf.modules'.) Is your modprobe located in '/sbin/modprobe'? If not, they you need to do echo "/wherever/modprobe" > /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe. Otherwise the kernel will look for modprobe in the wrong place.
Debian has got this all figure out, and I presume Red Hat does too. What distro are you using?
