Comment 1 Arjan van de Ven 2003-02-09 10:29:45 UTC 
please use modprobe and not insmod. insmod doesn't take dependencies on other
modules into account, modprobe will and will auto-load the modules that
implement usb_serial_deregister_R61074468 for you.
Comment 2 Stephen Rasku 2003-02-11 04:48:08 UTC 
modprobe works.
