This is not correct -- take a look at modprobe(8) and modprobe.conf(5), Fedora has exactly the same configuration as Debian (I know, I used both). I have here all my files in /etc/modprobe.d and everything works like a charm. The only caveat is (both at Debian and here) that when there is /etc/modprobe.conf modprobe takes configuration from there, and only if it isn't present it goes to individual files in /etc/modprobe.d. Remove your /etc/modprobe.conf (of course, compare its content with the content of /etc/modprobe.d files first) and files in /etc/modprobe.d will be taken into consideration. Best, Matěj Cepl
