How can I tell what drivers/modules are loaded?

  Date: Dec 17    Category: Unix / Linux / Ubuntu    Views: 359
  

I have 8.04.1 Hardy installed on my HP nc6000 laptop and would like to
know where I can find out what drivers/modules are running. Most
everything works on this laptop except for the SD card reader. I'd
like to get that working someday. For now I want to know what is
running that is working so I can try and compile my own Kernel for
this laptop. I tried once using KernelCheck and got no sound and it
would not see the wireless card. I'd like to also be able to take
full advantage of Compiz.

Try using the 'lsmod' command. You need to open a console window and
type in:

$ lsmod

(the dollar sign is your prompt)

You can redirect it into a file quite simply:

$ lsmod > loaded_modules.txt

# lsmod

use "less" to capture and transverse the module list.

# lsmod |less
