Thanks for fixing my errors.

Did you wait a few seconds before running this command? Association does
not necessarily instantly, it can take a few seconds (but considerably
less than a minute). Did you try 'modprobe -r'ing the module and
modprobing at again? Do you see any related kernel messages in the
syslog/dmesg? The kernel output from the time when the module got loaded
the first time might help, too.
