Then add a new line reading 'blacklist<br>ndiswrapper'. That should stop that module from ever being loaded.<br><br>- olly<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Durham mailing list - <a ymailto="mailto:Durham@mailman.lug.org.uk" href="/mc/compose?to=Durham@mailman.lug.org.uk">Durham@mailman.lug.org.uk</a><br><a href="https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/durham" target="_blank">https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/durham</a><br><a
