Rt61pci is the name of the driver.
I know that it is a beta, not working very well, that's why I want to remove
it, to change it to a newer version.
This is what I finde in the logs:


May 21 11:45:17 springbox kernel: Unloading module: rt61pci - CVS (N/A) by
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com.
May 21 11:45:18 springbox kernel: ACPI: PCI interrupt for device
0000:03:00.0 disabled
May 21 11:45:19 springbox kernel: Loading module: rt61pci - CVS (N/A) by
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com.
May 21 11:45:19 springbox kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:03:00.0[A] ->
Link [C0B9] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11

Question is obviously is this because FC4 or is it due to the driver itself.

So-far I have to eject the card, delete the drivers, do a depmod and insert
the card again.
