so, you reinstalled the RPM. did you do that manually, or via the
(I can't think what they call it) tool that asks you for the model of
your device then retrieves the bits and pieces and installs them, also
presumably doing the other tweaks necessary?

the manual installation usually involves more than installing the
RPM,... on their download page(s) for your particular Linux driver,
there is usually a link to a list of additional steps that have to be
done by hand to finish installation. Did you go thru those, or at least
verify that they are still in place?
