        this one shows some info about what symbols are declared within
the kernel and where to find them... think they are used somewhere or it's
just a hacker helper to find/track bugs or something else.

        this one has a more reasonable file: if I'm not crazy, it shows
what parameters and what values can be passed to the module when loading
it. I used it to hand-probing isa nics whose io and irq were unknown. I
think that could be used with another stuff, primaryly sound cards and
strange hard.
