Hi,

did you compile your kernel with the module unloading option?

CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y
CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_UNLOAD=y

Is you license working properly after rebooting?

    Currently having a problem with driverloader module unloading.  I
have a netgear MA521 (Realtek 8180 chipset) running on a Dell Latitude
C840, Fedora Core 1 with the latest 2.6.1 kernel.  
    The module loads fine, Pwr and Lnk lights come on on the card.  When
I try to apply my newly-purchased license and click "Save," nothing
happens.  A `ps ax` shows that I'm stuck on the `rmmod driverloader` and
dldrconfig tries to unload it to apply my license.
    From that point, apps start crashing, commands like kill and
/sbin/lsmod lock up completely, etc. etc.  I inevitably just have to
turn it off. 
    Any thoughts/ideas would be greatly appreciated!
