modprobe in FC5?

Did I just happen to not install it or something?

Code:
[root@Zaecron etc]# modprobe rt2500
bash: modprobe: command not found
I'm trying to install my wireless card. I compiled the module successfully just can't install it

I'm running the new FC5 of course, kernel 2.6.15.

Any suggestions?

even as root modprobe needs to be run: /sbin/modprobe That should work

instead of using su, use su -, which would set the paths appropriately. Then root commands would work without having to specify an explicit path.
