Hello list,
I want to know which of the modules that 'lsmod' shows I am currently 
using.

lsmod shows 42 modules. Are all of them being used?

Can I see which device is using which module?

Thanks


The third column of lsmod's output tells you if a module is being used. 
Take a look in /proc to find out what process is using a particular module.

Get info. about the lsmod command and proc filesystem;
$ man lsmod
$ man 5 proc

Good luck.
