hello,
If I type "lsmod" there is a big list of modules with many followed by a 
"0"
which I guess means they are not needed in the kernel ?
Does lsmod know about all installed software and if a module is needed 
or does software have to be run first ?
If I don't need them can somebody remind me how I can remove modules ?
cheers
mick
