+.SH "NAME"
+insmod \- Simple program to insert a module into the Linux Kernel
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBinsmod\fR\ 'u
+\fBinsmod\fR [\fIfilename\fR] [\fImodule\ options\fR...]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBinsmod\fR
+is a trivial program to insert a module into the kernel\&. Most users will want to use
+\fBmodprobe\fR(8)
+instead, which is more clever and can handle module dependencies\&.
+.PP
+Only the most general of error messages are reported: as the work of trying to link the module is now done inside the kernel, the
+\fBdmesg\fR
+usually gives more information about errors\&.
