Hi all,
I have a usb wireless lan card that works with ndiswrapper perfectly
but when I unplug it, the system freezes. This happens in all dists of
linux.
Of course, in some dists, if I issue the command: "modprobe -r
ndiswrapper" before unplugging the card, the system doesn't hang.
So my question is that because I found the command above arbitrary, I
don't know if it is the best solution. Do you know better one? or do
you know a way which itself unload modules in unplugging time
automatically so that the system doesn't hang?
