Hi modprobe -r didn't work. It simply said the module was in use. What I want is a way to figure out what modules are using that, unload them, then unload the module I specified. If I had to compare it to anything, it would be an apt-get remove operation. You do apt-get remove xlibs and all the packages that depend on xlibs, and all packages that may have depended on those, are removed as well. This is what I want for modules, and looking through lsmod output manually won't work, since I need to do this in a script which will eventually be used for ACPI's suspend feature. I've looked on google but haven't found anything. Any ideas? I don't want module dependencies ignored, I want them followed.
