What does 'lsmod' show on knoppix, where sound is working?

I also have ac97 sound, and on debian (2.4.24) I see this:

i810_audio             21436   1
ac97_codec             11444   0  [i810_audio]
soundcore               3268   2  [i810_audio]

These work for the OSS drivers; this is not for alsa.
