Hi, I have Fedora 21 (x86_64). Under /usr/lib/modules/3.17.4-302.fc21.x86_64/kernel, all the kernel module are in compressed form. (xz files). Under /usr/lib/modules/3.17.4-302.fc21.x86_64/kernel, the kernel modules are in the *.ko form What are the *.xz compressed kernel modules for ? In fedora 20 we had only *.ko files under /lib/modules. It seems to me that after booting, when running modprobe, only the *.ko modules are used. Just wonder what would happen If I would (accidentally or by purpose) delete the /lib/modules folder in fedora 21 (I don't intend to do it before getting an answer here...)
