Can you give a bit more detail? I'm not sure how one would go about eliminating modprobe.conf - so many things seem to use it. Particularly alsaconf (alsa-utils). Do you not even need alsaconf? To actually remove module-init-tools would remove hotplug too, so you can't totally give up modprobe.conf.
