1 Hi,
2
3 when doing as root
4
5 lspci -vk
6
7 I get all pci devices and "bus inhabitants" listed.
8 Additionally there are often two lines added to each
9 device saying similiar things like:
10
11 Kernel driver in use: >XYZ>
12 Kernel modules: <XYZ>
13
14 and there other devices do not have similiar entries.
15
16 My question is: How can I distinguish devices/entities,
17 which do not need any driver to work and those, which
18 need a driver but in the current setup the driver wasn't
19 compiled in/compiled as module?
20
21 Thank you very much in advance for any help!
22 Best regards,
23 mcc
