| Greg,
| 
| did you receive any errors when attempting to unload the modules, and
| was asterisk still running at that time?
| Be sure asterisk is not running, and that you remove the modules in 
| reverse.
| I only tried it once, so it could have been a red herring.

Niles

only error was the drivers were already unloaded

doesn't matter if asterisk is running or not
