When starting the system loads driver by defect (rt73usb) for device. I need that it loaded additional rt73 driver that I installed.
This don't happen in another equipment acting of the same form. The only difference is the machine uses USB 1.1 and it don't load the device at the beginning. I must unplug it and return it to fit so that it works. It has something to see?

Like in my other machine, my steps were:

eliminate driver by defect with 'rmmod rt73usb'
install correct driver rt73

Rt73 driver load correctly in the system (lsmod command).

Check out /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist. You can use it to prevent rt73usb being loaded.

Thanks I will try it. The rmmod command really eliminate the module?

Ready.

For your interest, the rmmod command don't delete the module completely, returns it to load on startup.
