On my SuSE 9.1 box under my desk, I did a lsmod > before and the plugged in a usb key. I mounted it and did lsmod > after. Here is a diff of before and after: kahlua:~ # diff before after 1a2,6 > nls_utf8 2304 1 > nls_cp437 6016 1 > vfat 14208 1 > fat 43584 1 vfat > usb_storage 60096 1 15c20 < sd_mod 20224 0 --- > sd_mod 20224 2 17c22 < scsi_mod 108876 4 sg,st,sd_mod,sr_mod --- > scsi_mod 108876 5 usb_storage,sg,st,sd_mod,sr_mod 48c53 < usbcore 103644 4 usbserial,uhci_hcd --- > usbcore 103644 5 usb_storage,usbserial,uhci_hcd 50c55 < subfs 7424 2 --- > subfs 7424 3 As you can see it has loaded usb_storage, fat and vfat. Fdisk shows this: kahlua:~ # fdisk -l /dev/sda Disk /dev/sda: 16 MB, 16384000 bytes 2 heads, 32 sectors/track, 500 cylinders Units = cylinders of 64 * 512 = 32768 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 499 15952 1 FAT12 I hope this helps.
