how to update addons manually on command line

Question

On my PC OpenERP is taking ages to update module list.
I know there is -u parameter that we can use to force OpenERP to update a particular module but I am not able to get the name of the module in the list of Apps.
I have removed Featured filter and am viewing apps in list view and not in kanban view.
How to get my module to appear in apps list without having to click on Update Module List and waiting for ages for this process to complete.
TIA
