Kernel modules

Ok, total noob-like question. Where can I find all the kernel modules I can modprobe?

I'm use to Zenwalk where they have a "Control Panel" with a Kernel Modules option, with everything listed. Is there a cli option that can tell me?

TIA,
Scott

you can browse the folder tree of where the modules are installed.
/lib/modules/<kernel version><tag>/

Additionally "uname -r" will display which kernel you are using.

Unfortunately, you get no description of what module is what.
