I found this out also. If I run this command, here is what I get: # modprobe -r psmouse ; modprobe psmouse modprobe: FATAL: Module psmouse is builtin.
The psmouse.ko file does not exist. So how can it be built in to the kernel if it doesn't exist?
When configuring the kernel, for many drivers you have the option to compile them fixed into the kernel OR as a module. Those compiled into the kernel of course have no .ko in /lib/modules..... The names in modules.builtin refer to the path the .ko file WOULD have if it were a loadable module.
Ok, thanks.
