these modules used to load automatically for me WITHOUT the need to specify them in /etc/modules.autoload/kernel-2.6

e1000
ipw2100
ehci_hcd
...

i think hotplug handled that.

after a whole lot of package updates, which includes the kernel (not sure abt hotplug, but i re-emerged anyway to see if that's the problem) these modules needed to be manually loaded...

any explanation?

the loading of modules for hadware initialised at boot is now handled by coldplug. if you want thos modules loaded automatically you'll need to emerge that.
