I have tested a lot more now, but can't isolate what program causes this. I was wrong about the "Usage count" being the number of times the driver has been reloaded, at least for my setup. After rmmod when modprobe'ing the module I get this message when in console (init 3): net eth1: device_rename: sysfs_create_symlink failed (-17) I will see if it goes away with Larrys new bcm43xx-mac80211 patch for my kernel, if not I will continue hunting. _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
