When ur application crashes, it wont complain about module being busy. Once ur module is entirely tested, u keep these in open and closes. However this is not a solution if ur module itself has some bugs and lets say crashes during init_module(). How do we cleanup such things ??? -nagaraj \(*_*)/ -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel. Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/kernelnewbies/ FAQ: http://kernelnewbies.org/faq/
