Hi,

it seems that you have installed a pre-compiled RPM of the DriverLoader 
package. To remove this package, you must enter this command in a root 
shell :

---
rpm -e driverloader
---

Please note that the following directories will remain installed even if 
you remove the DriverLoader package :

---
/etc/driverloader
/var/lib/driverloader
---

The '/etc/driverloader' directory contains the configuration files of 
DriverLoader and the license(s) among other things. The 
'/var/lib/driverloader' directory holds all the installed Windows XP 
driver(s).

If you want to remove these directories as well, you can use the 
follwing commands in a root shell :

---
rm -fr /etc/driverloader
rm -fr /var/lib/driverloader
---

On the other machine, please download and install the right DriverLoader 
that you can download from the DriverLoader download page at :

http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/full/downloads.php

You can use the same license on the new machine without any problems.

Regards,
