-      Aliases are visible in the output of the <command>modinfo</command>
-      program and are usually related to the bus-specific identifiers of devices
-      supported by a module. For example, the <emphasis>snd-fm801</emphasis>
-      driver supports PCI devices with vendor ID 0x1319 and device ID 0x0801,
-      and has an alias of <quote>pci:v00001319d00000801sv*sd*bc04sc01i*</quote>.
-      For most devices, the bus driver exports the alias of the driver that
-      would handle the device via <systemitem
-      class="filesystem">sysfs</systemitem>. E.g., the
-      <filename>/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:0d.0/modalias</filename> file
-      might contain the string
-      <quote>pci:v00001319d00000801sv00001319sd00001319bc04sc01i00</quote>.
-      The default rules provided with Udev will cause <command>udevd</command>
-      to call out to <command>/sbin/modprobe</command> with the contents of the
-      <envar>MODALIAS</envar> uevent environment variable (which should be the
-      same as the contents of the <filename>modalias</filename> file in sysfs),
