Have you tried just changing to single user mode, then back to your regular mode? Many times changing runlevels will fix some oddities (but not always). You might have to go one step further and remove some modules so that when you switch back to runlevel 3 (text login) or 5 (graphical login), it will load the required modules back. If something is funky with the modules in kernel-space though, you might get the busy error message. The only advice I can offer is remove the modules in opposite order that they are dependent. For example, in the following: sg 30180 0 (autoclean) (unused) st 27316 0 (autoclean) (unused) sr_mod 15160 0 (autoclean) (unused) sd_mod 11644 0 (autoclean) (unused) scsi_mod 92488 4 (autoclean) [sg st sr_mod sd_mod] I won't be able to remove scsi_mod first. I would have to rmmod sg, then st, then sr_mod, then sd_mod. Only then would I be able to remove scsi_mod. Blue skies...
