I normally use rmmod to unload kernel-modles, so u can try rmmod visor. greetz alex -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

well, let me describe the problem. sometimes, when I try to synchronize my Palm, pilot-xfer throws a error, and the devices /dev/tts/USBn do not disappear. if it happens repeatedly... well, I guess the scene is painted. I thought it could solve it killing the module. I have tried modprobe -rf visor but visor do not want to die. any ideas?

Hi Cláudio, on Wednesday, 2006-01-25 at 13:47:21, you wrote: I thought it could solve it killing the module. I have tried modprobe -rf visor but visor do not want to die. any ideas? Do you have forced module unloading enabled in your kernel? If you do, it's probably a problem in the module itself that can't be solved without hacking the source. regards Matthias -- I prefer encrypted and signed messages.
