I am not sure what you are asking. You can list all of the modules which are loaded into memory with the lsmod command:
lsmod
You can find individual modules in the kernel on the disk with the find command, for example:
actually i am so interested in webcam drivers...so i planned to remove the original driver from the kernel and make it by own...Thats why i asked...can i able to do?
