You said that A depends on B, right? Why do you have A dependng on B? If it A needs to have B then it makes sense that you can not remove A while B is in use. If A doesn't need B, why not remove the dependency. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
