"rmmod bcm43xx" when kde is running hangs rmmod and prevents a clean shutdown.
I tried to find which program causes this while using bcm4301 driver, but so
far no luck. System shuts down fine if I don't try to rmmod first. rmmod
works fine from runlevel 3 aside from this message when inserting module
again:
"net eth1: device_rename: sysfs_create_symlink failed (-17)"
I just got one of these during bootup, which prevented bcm43xx from starting correctly.
The logged sequence was:
kernel: bcm43xx-phy1: Broadcom 4311 WLAN found
kernel: ssb: Switching to IEEE 802.11 core, index 1

ifup: NetworkManager will be advised to set up eth1
ifup: but it cannot be assured from here.

The fix for this was to 'modprobe -r bcm43xx' followed by 'modprobe bcm43xx', which got everything
started OK.
