No, at76c503-rfmd does not accept a debug parameter, insmod should return
an error here - I meant at76c503!
You may consider to read the support part of http://at76c503a.berlios.de/,
especially the troubleshooting section.

First remove all modules which use usbdfu, then remove it itself.

I wrote debug=1 for usbdfu, but here it really doesn't matter.

The insmod way above will work, for modules.conf you need to add the
lines
options usbdfu debug=1
options at76c503 debug=-1

How to do this depends entirely on your distribution, here with debian
woody, this file is generated.
