If you use modprobe rather than insmod to load them, it sorts out
dependencies like that for you.

/etc/modules.conf only states the options to be applied to modules if
they get loaded, and not which modules to load. The kernel module daemon
kmod is supposed to handle that, but it sounds like either it has
problems with the ax.25 modules or you don't have it loaded.
However, I'm no 2.4 kernel expert, so others with mode knowledge of the
latest developments in this area will advise you better than I can here.
Best wishes from Riley.
