I've got the printer modules working fine, thanks to Chris, but I've got
a number of other modules that won't load.  I'm using the video4linux
stuff, but when I try and start the xwindow for the camera, the modules
don't get loaded.  I tried adding the proper options for them to the
/etc/conf.modules file, but they still don't get loaded automagically. 
I can insmod them and it works fine.  I know kmod must be working,
because my printer modules get loaded.  I can't find any docs that
specifically define what's supposed to go in the conf.modules file. 
Chris gave me some info on the printer that got it working, but he used
an alias and I can't figure why that was necessary.
