Subject: [gentoo-user] /etc/modules.d how to understand

Hi,
I'd like to understand the "magic" of files in /etc/modules.d
How to write such an 'alias' line.
Can anybody point me to a HowTo?
E.g. in kernel 2.6.22 there is no more an option to select
a USB-WACOM tablet input.
I've built the kernel module from the linuxwacom project,
but what's the right way to load the module.
(I could do an explicit insmod in /etc/conf.d/local.start
but that's not the canonical solution, isn't it.)
Many thanks for your help,
