When I use kextstat and grep to detect third-party extensions, it is not listed. How can I detect this third party extensions that could affect my system and contains com.apple into his CFBundleIdentifier??

Used kextstat to see what was installed and removed the software. My Display Sleep function stopped working with the OS X 10.7 install this morning. Now it works.
