My answers EF E: depmod -av will show all modules with versions and deps. I cannot get version with lsmod F: dmesg will show which modules were loaded on boot.

Weird question. Module versions: None of the options will show kernel module versions. You need 'modinfo [module-name]' to show the version of a named module. lsmod is wrong because it shows the module, its size and dependencies, NOT version number Modules loaded at boot: dmesg will show all kernel messages at boot, including very verbose output from kernel modules/drivers being loaded, but it's not a simple list of 'this set of modules loaded at boot'. lsmod is wrong because it shows modules currently loaded - and some may have been removed or added since boot...

System administrators can use lsmod, modprobe, and dmesg to get information about the kernel.

lsmod is the only correct answer. modinfo can give you information about a specific module (including version information)
