    I am using the Mandriva Linux - 2008 version.
    Recently I have compiled the latest kernel source - 2.6.xx.5

    I tried to compile a single module and tried inserting and removing using the commands - insmod and rmmod, they were successful.

    But now i added another module file and tried to build the module. The build was successful.

    Using the Insmod, i inserted both in to kernel space.
    When i tried to removed the module, i get the error saying,

    "Module is in use and can not be removed".

    Is there any means - to kill this module.
