Here is a very crude but very useful trick to try.

Let's say you know enough to look somewhere in /etc for the cause
of the problem, but you don't have a clue which files to examine.

Then you can use a 'shotgun' method like this (as root):

cd /etc
grep -r e100 *

(If you don't know what grep does then do 'man grep' and read the
Description section first.) This will examine every file in /etc
for the character string 'e100'. That string probably appears
somewhere in the part of /etc that deals with modules and maybe
even in more than one file, so it's nice to find them all.

I'm assuming you know what to do if you find the string 'e100'
somewhere in /etc, right? ;-)
