Hummm, to be honest, I don't know if the user interface is that lousy as
one of the first things it told you was that it was busy...

Whatever, what is sufficient for one may not even be necessary for
others...

The problem is that simply removing the module is not a persistent
change and the module will be loaded in the future, if it is indicated
for loading in /etc/modules and you reboot your system (like after you
recompile a new version of your kernel). Remove (or comment) it from
that file to get a tidy system.


Hope this helps, Roger...
