I just checked my /dev/gadget, the ownership of your /dev/gadget/dummy_udc
shouldn't be root 

ls -l /dev/gadget
total 0
-rw------- 1 talpa root 0 2007-07-19 09:23 dummy_udc

(after I do a usb_add gadget:1 inside qemu I also get lots of
/dev/gadget/ep* entries with the same set of permissions)

I must admit I never did use modprobe to insert the modules in my kernel
(I used a Debian tool? modconf, that ensures that the modules get loaded 
 each time the machine is bootet)
But modprobe should work just fine....

btw. I have noticed that modprobe dos not complain if the module is already 
loaded, perhaps gadgetfs was already loaded (without default_uid=1000)
when you issued the command?
