You should check.

Try:

prog "dial" dial

If the modules need to be installed before dial runs, then try something like

prog "dial" - insmod <module alias> && insmod <module alias> && dial

Maybe:

prog "dial" - 'insmod <module alias> && insmod <module alias> && dial'

Hopefully, something like the above will accomplish that.
