Ideally I would think that you should copy pci-scan.o and rtl8139.o into
/lib/modules/{kernel-version}/net, and then run
depmod -a
modprobe rtl8139
modprobe is much smarter than insmod, and can figure out for you exactly
what you need. In this case, modprobe should auto-load pci-scan.o when
you request rtl8139 be loaded.
