Is it possible to insert compile module after compiled "make" without installing

Hi gud day,

I would like to ask if possible to load the driver i compiled module without installing it in the ubuntu-kernel-distro/updates* or simple not executing "make install". what i mean is i compile the compat wireless driver using make and i want to try to load
on the system without installing "make install"

Is it possible, thanks in advance for the possible answer.

Usually you install it so you can use modprobe, which handles things like dependencies, but if you really want to force a module load manually, there's always insmod.

Look for the .ko file, then insmod /path/to/module.ko
