To add a word or two to Josh's pithy reply :-}, 'kextstat' will display a list of the running extensions. The *convention* is that one names one's kext with an indication of the kind of extension:


75 1 0xd5cd000 0x17000 0x17000 com.apple.driver.ndrv.ATY,Rage128Ps.0xd5ce4a4 (1.0.1b48)
77 0 0x25412000 0x8000 0x7000 com.apple.nke.IPFirewall (1.3) <10>
80 0 0x25226000 0x10000 0xf000 com.apple.filesystems.msdosfs (1.3)


so in this list, there is a driver, an NKE, and a VFS plugin. However, it's just a convention:

73 0 0x639000 0x2c000 0x2b000 com.apple.ATIRage128 (3.2.8) <72 66 15 10>

is a driver that is not named according to the convention.

To get a list of installed extensions, 'ls' the directory "/System/Library/Extensions". Again, this doesn't tell you which ones are NKEs.

Cheers,

Justin
