Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

There are a number of pages on the Wiki making mention of changes to /etc/modprobe.d/options:

https://help.ubuntu.com/search.html?cof=FORID%3A9&cx=003883529982892832976%3Ae2vwumte3fq&ie=UTF-8&q=%2Fetc%2Fmodprobe.d%2Foptions&sa=Search

This format has been replaced, for example options for a Nova DVB-T card would now be in /etc/modprobe.d/nova.conf

My searches on the string seem to be only turning up the use of /etc/modprobe.d/options when talking about older versions of Ubuntu. So I an marking this 'Fix Released'
