lsmod command not working
 

Dear all,

When i trying to user #lsmod /proc/modules it is showing as below
#lsmod /proc/modules
Usage: lsmod

Please suggest me what have to be done.

You are mixing up two different things.

It is lsmod or cat /proc/modules

Just type 'lsmod' without the quotes. The program knows to format the contents of /proc/modules ; you don't need to specify that.

No i am just typed as lsmod /proc/modules

Please explain what you are trying to do. I don't understand your comment.

i want to read the file /proc/modules.
I used cat /proc/modules, but it is little hard to understand the contents.
So i used to read by the command lsmod /proc/modules which displays in an understandable mode..

You cannot use lsmod to show the content of /proc/modules. It (lsmod) already looks at /proc/modules, no need to specify the file.

I.e. (as shown above): lsmod (nothing more, nothing less).

Thank you for your reply..
Now i got clarified..
