Re: Orinoco_cs module won't unload in 2.5.70

[Matthew Harrell]

Nothing useful.  I've got this problem in a 2.5.65 kernel also.  Really is
annoyying since the machine will not soft reboot because it thinks that
device is still in use.  I have to physically power it off every time I 
want to reboot it change any major pcmcia settings
