    RHEL 5.4 Driver Detail

    Hi,
    I'm new to Linux, I work for a Hardware Developer and i need to know how to look up the driver info in Red Hat Server 5.4 for a LSI SAS card or for any driver really. Mainly i need to find if the driver i installed matches the most recent driver version released by the manufacture. Can anyone help me with this.

    dmesg
    lsmod
    and modinfo are your friends

    dmesg will show you, what hardware the kernel actually discovered while booting.
    lsmod shows the loaded kernelmodules
    and modinfo <kernelmodule> gives you some info about that module.
