When I boot one of my machines I get the following:

<date/time> modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-10

I assume that I need an alias for this in my modules.conf file as
well, but I don't know what to alias it to.

alias char-major-10     ?

Does anyone one know? If I understand correctly, this is related to a
character device with a major number of 10. I looked in /dev and there
are a number of character devices with the major number of 10.
