NAME

6       insmod - Simple program to insert a module into the Linux Kernel
7

SYNOPSIS

9       insmod [filename] [module options...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       insmod is a trivial program to insert a module into the kernel. Most
13       users will want to use modprobe(8) instead, which is more clever and
14       can handle module dependencies.
15
16       Only the most general of error messages are reported: as the work of
17       trying to link the module is now done inside the kernel, the dmesg
18       usually gives more information about errors.
