Greg wrote a good script in book "Linux Kernel in a Nutshell" to find a
lot of modules used in your current kernel:
<http://www.kroah.com/lkn>

Take a look in chapter 07:
<http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/lkn/lkn_pdf/ch07.pdf>

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that I see in the past an errata about this
script in O'realy.
