Welcome to CRUX.

You need to either compile a new kernel with the natsemi code built in 
(then you wont need to modprobe it) or build the module in whiuch case 
you can just build and install the modules.

Normally a system will automatically load the modules so you shouldn't 
need to modprobe at all.

HTH,
