kmon
A terminal-based Linux kernel manager and activity monitor for loading, unloading, and monitoring kernel modules.
What is kmon?
kmon is a Linux kernel manager and activity monitor that provides a text-based user interface for managing kernel modules and viewing kernel logs. It solves the problem of needing multiple separate command-line tools (like dmesg, lsmod, modprobe) by integrating their functionality into a single, interactive terminal application, making kernel operations more efficient and user-friendly.
Linux system administrators, kernel developers, and power users who need to manage kernel modules, debug hardware issues, or monitor kernel activities without switching between multiple terminal commands.
Developers choose kmon because it offers a consolidated, keyboard-driven interface for kernel management that is faster and more intuitive than using individual CLI tools. Its real-time monitoring, dependency visualization, and customization options provide a superior workflow for kernel-related tasks.
