nvidia fastwrites/SBA

I'm trying to enable fastwrites and SBA for my 6600GT, but the problem is I don't have a /etc/modules.d/nvidia file. Should I create this or can I put it in /etc/rc.conf?

alias char-major-195 nvidia 
options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1

nevermind a quick google search directed me to an arch page here:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … cbb7ba3aad

for those of you that don't feel like going to the link, its /etc/modprobe.conf

Re: nvidia fastwrites/SBA

modules.d? i believe that's from another distro... maybe debian?

anyway, yes, it goes into modprobe.conf

I believe its in debian and I know gentoo uses it.
