.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\&.
