Or use whatever mechanism your distro uses for auto-loading modules 
(i.e. /etc/modules.conf or /etc/modules.d/* or ...).  Check the 
docs/fora/mailing lists for your distro for more info.

BTW, you only have to do depmod after you change the modules (i.e. add a 
new module, but that's usually taken care of by the packaging mechanism) 
or mod{ules,probe}.conf, so you shouldn't need to do it every time you 
boot (besides, most distros include a depmod somewhere in the init 
scripts just in case, so forcing it to do another would be a complete 
waste).
