Hello Wade,
Here is an output from lsmod:
Module Size Used by Not tainted
st 32332 0 (autoclean) (unused)
sg 37580 0 (autoclean)
sr_mod 18200 0 (autoclean)
ide-scsi 12368 0
scsi_mod 110904 4 [st sg sr_mod ide-scsi]
ide-cd 35808 0
Snip to suit ofcourse. I assume that the usage would be a 1 if in use
otherwise 0 correct. Any help would be great. Thanks.
Cheers,
Aly.
