[driverloader] Error inserting driverloader

[Marty Huntzberry]

I'm actually trying to install it on another pc that's an a Pentium
Class pc-686 that's running Slackware 10.2 Linux.  I was able to
compile driverloader on that pc but it doesn't recognize the RT73
driver the Belkin device needs on my driver cd.  Somebody there sent me
an email a while ago and said that the RT73 module is not supported by
driverloader.  Hopefully driverloader will be updated before I return
this in 2 weeks!
