silverline LQ Newbie Registered: Mar 2004 Posts: 3 Rep:	Unable to unload driver in 2.6 I tweaked a driver for 2.4.20 to make it work with 2.6.3 kernel. Loading is fine but when i try to unload the module using "modprobe -r" or "rmmod" i get the following message: ERROR: Removing 'Pci9656': Device or resource busy Forced module unloading configurations option is enabled. Can anybody suggest a fix. If u need more information please tell me.
