This is what happens I type /sbin/insmod rt61.ko And hit return. The leds on the card starts flashing, 2 seconds later the screen goes black and FEDORA Reboots. This is what I found in /var/messages: May 19 00:11:55 springbox kernel: rt61: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel. May 19 00:11:55 springbox kernel: PCI: Enabling device 0000:03:00.0 (0000 -> 0002) May 19 00:11:55 springbox kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:03:00.0[A] -> Link [C0B9] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 May 19 00:11:55 springbox kernel: RT61: Vendor = 0x1814, Product = 0x0302 May 19 00:11:57 springbox kernel: RT61: RfIcType= 3 May 19 00:13:01 springbox syslogd 1.4.1: restart. May 19 00:13:01 springbox kernel: klogd 1.4.1, log source = /proc/kmsg started. Anyone having any ideas what to do?
