Delete this, if you don't use ALSA 0.5 and you really shouldn't do
that as well, 0.5 is way obsolete.

They may already be the same file, i.e. one is a link to the other
like here:

$ ls -l /etc/modutils/
total 21
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Aug 12 2002 alsa -> /etc/alsa/modutils/0.9

It is important, that you have one under /etc/modutils/.
update-modules collects everything under this directory to build the
'real' module configuration, which is in /etc/modules.conf. This last
file gets overwritten everytime you or an installaton script calls
update-modules.

ciao
