Hello all,

I am trying to uninstall ndiswrapper completely and do a re-install but I can't seem to uninstall it 
completely.

I was able to uninstall 2 of the kernel modules that was installed but I need to uninstall one more 
it seems before I can uninstall ndiswrapper.  The error I am getting when I try to uninstall it is:

rpm -e kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4-1.2-0.lvn.3.4.i686
error: Failed dependencies:
kernel-module-ndiswrapper >= 0:1.2-0.lvn.3.4 is needed by(installed) ndiswrapper-1.2-0.lvn.3.4.i386

When I tried to uninstall 0:1.2-0.lvn.3.4 I get an error
rpm -e 0:1.2-0.lvn.3.4
error: package 0:1.2-0.lvn.3.4 is not installed

Could it be because I am booted up in this particular kernel (2.6.12-1.1398) and the module is 
loaded?  If so is there a way to unload it using modprobe? or does anyone know how I can get rid of 
that last kernel module so I can be able to uninstall ndiswrapper?
