kernel module stuck on
 

hi, i want to overclock my eee 900 with the eee.ko kernel module.

the problem is that the module isn't doing anything, and i cant unload it.

modprobe -r eee just hangs
rmmod eee says that it is in use
rmmod -f eee says "device or resource busy"

im running "eeebuntu" with the eee-optimised kernel(2.6.24-21-eeepc)

/proc/modules has the eee module listed as:
eee 6596 1 - Loading 0xf8ce3000

why is the module still loading??

it is supposed to be "experimental", so it could be a bug.
the problem is i dont know how to unload it.

Was this a replacement for an existing module (by the same name)?

If it tries to do what you said, then I doubt you will be able to unload the module since it is controlling the CPU itself. You could black list it. Another thing to try is simply removing the kernel module (.ko file) and rebooting. Loading the module will fail in that case. Make sure that there isn't a reference to it in the boot options. After rebooting, uninstall the package. Make sure that the entries for it in /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/eee are removed. After making these changes, try running "sudo /sbin/depmod -a" to update
