Where is module_file?



I need some help with the modinfo program. When I run lsmod I get:

Module		Pages		Used by
serial		8		2 (autoclean)
cdrom		1		0
linear		1		0

So this means that I have 3 different modules installed in my kernel, right?

O.K. If I want to display information about one of these particular 
modules I assume I use the program modinfo.

The synopsis (according to man modinfo) of modinfo is:

	modinfo [options] <module_file>

Therefore it seems that if I knew where the module_files for the 3 
modules I have I would be able to get some information about the modules, 
right?

But I installed the modules when I originally installed Debian and when I 
did that the installation program did all the work and I didn't have a clue.

So if anyone knows where these files might be, I would greatly appreciate 
the advice.


Thanks in advance
