[opensuse] Re: How to unload kernel module?

Hello,
I'd like to debug a kernel module. For that, I want to unload the module that was loaded at boot. I remember in the old days, you could simply "modprobe -r modname" to get rid of it.

Thanks for the quick answer. Unfortunately, rmmod will not remove the module because its use-count is still 1 although no applications are currently using /dev/dvb/*. raven:/ # lsof | grep /dev/dvb raven:/ # -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

rmmod -f, but only if you are sure nothing it using it. It will get unloaded and if something tries to use it, you'll get a panic or worse. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
