O.K. I'm ready to catch hell for my igernuts!  When I run "lsmod" (using
Ubuntu 7.04) I get a list a mile long.  I know I should remove some of
'em, but not sure, exactly which ones?  The ones followed by a zero?
Here's my list of modules.

Are some of the zeroes not being used now, but are waiting in the bushes
to strike?  I don't have a ps mouse, I have a USB mouse. Any help,
please.  I know Lonnie is a mod Killer so he'll prolly straighten me
out.
Thanks,
Bob
