Mea culpa; the ip6tables modules are named just that, ip6tables_*. You could try an extended regexp search (-E option in grep), or just run lsmod and sort through the list. Module dependencies are listed in the fourth column.

This is the only one I can suspect. God, I hate to reboot.

No firewall on that system? There should be about 9 modules named ip* just from iptables alone, nevermind NAT and connection tracking, and nevermind ip6tables. If ipv6 is enabled, then the system should automatically configure a default ipv6 address for your network devices, and I think that should result in a few more modules being loaded. In any event, "lsmod | grep ip" should yield far more than just ipv6.
BTW, I discovered just today that, at least in 9.0, SuSEfirewall2 will load a couple of ip6tables modules even if ipv6 is not loaded. It used modprobe to do so, and there is no complaint from the system. If I try to load the same module using insmod, I get "unresolved symbol" errors. Very strange.
I'm a bit curious about the output you're posting here; when I run lsmod, I get things like
iptable_nat 15374 1 [ip_nat_ftp]
This shows that this module depends on ip_nat_ftp, so the latter cannot be removed until iptable_nat (and any other modules depending on it) is removed.

This is my home desktop. It is by itself behind 2 other firewalls (the cable router, and one debian box), so the SuSEFirewall is not activated. And I can't believe there is no way to disable this ipv6 stuff without rebooting. I'm so tired to reboot winbozes all the day at work :) Sunny -- Get Firefox http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=10745&t=85
