Add kernel modules manually

Docs
1

I might have found a problem with the documentation page for adding kernel modules manually, at Add kernel modules manually — Documentation for Clear Linux* project.

The documentation suggests using the command
sudo swupd search ${module_name}.ko
to search for kernel drivers, but I wasn’t able to find the kernel driver I was looking for (nct7802) this way. I had to use a different search command
sudo swupd search-file nct7802.ko
to find it.

That’s because Clear Linux and its documentation assume a certain familiarity with concepts like
Shell-Parameter-Expansion

Note that we do not have bundles that have kernel modules outside of the bundles that have the base kernels in them… there shouldn’t be any need to search for specific kernel modules in swupd
