lsmod for me is always showing that no module is used, which is
defenetely not true (for example for the driver modules). So, how do I
see that for those modules?
There are periods of time when certain modules are not used; for
example, I'm offline right now, so lsmod tells me this:
Module Size Used by Not tainted
ppp_deflate 3000 0 (autoclean)
zlib_deflate 18840 0 (autoclean) [ppp_deflate]
bsd_comp 4184 0 (autoclean)
But when I'm online, ppp_deflate is used. I've always used intuition and
guesswork to connect program with the modules they use. For examples,
the ppp and ppp_deflate modules are use by the pppd daemon; the snd-*
modules are used by alsa.
I guess you could remove a module with rmmod, then run a program that
you think uses that module and see what happens. If that program uses
the module, either the module will be automatically reloaded, or the
program will abort.
