Script To Remove Unused Modules

From OESF

I run this script from my .profile whenevre I start a terminal session. Works great and only keeps modules I absolutely need loaded.

 //BEGIN CODE//
 #!/bin/bash
 # clean_mods.sh - Script to unload unused Linux modules to save memory.

 modlist=`lsmod |cut -f 1 -d " "|tr '\n' ' '|sed 's/Module//'`
 
 echo " "
 echo "Trying to remove unused modules in memory."
 for mod in $modlist
 do
     rmmod $mod > /dev/null 2>&1
     if [[ $? -eq 0 ]; then
        echo "- Removed: $mod"
     else
        echo "+ In Use: $mod"
     fi
 done

 echo " "
 echo "Loaded modules left:"
 lsmod
 echo " "

 exit 0
