The main problem with your code is that bash doens't know the stuff in the
"'s is a command to be executed. Try something like.
if [ -n "$(lsmod | grep $module)" ]; then
echo "Yeah.. that puppy is loaded...."
stuff
fi
... or more simply...
[ -n "$(lsmod | grep $module)" ] && {
echo "Yeah.. that puppy is loaded...."
stuff
}
... or just use the exit code directly and...
lsmod | grep -q $module && {
echo "Yeah.. that puppy is loaded...."
stuff
}
... ahh.. ain't shell grand. ;)
