DESCRIPTION
Utilities for loading kernel modules. Included are 'insmod', 'lsmod',
'rmmod', 'depmod', and 'modprobe'. The configuration file
/etc/modprobe.* can be used to pass parameters to the modules. 'depmod'
should be used after compiling a new kernel to generate the dependency
information. 'insmod' does not use the dependency nor the options file.
Therefore, 'modprobe' is normally used to load a module.
