You don't need to delete the driver file itself, just stop it loading. To get a list of kernel modules, open a terminal window (yes, I know this is Mac but even Mac still needs console): $ lsmod To remove a particular module: $ sudo modprobe -r $module_name (use modprobe -r because it also removes the dependencies of that module - if there are dependencies, rmmod can fail horribly.) To stop the module loading at next boot (if that is what you want to do), ensure it is not in /etc/modules and/or specify it as a blacklisted module. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
