Hmm I tried to test, but realised that it will take me some more

I thought I had them disabled, but lsmod proved me wrong...
So I tried a simple quick test, which I think should (could?) have
the same effect: I manually unloaded the modules in question after
booting, checked with lsmod and then and run your script adapted to
my card#. I even did try to unplug the Multiface cable in between on
some of my tests, just to try everything I could imagine could possibly
help). But hdsploader returned with the same error message as it always
does when I start it the first time.
That's good to know it's consistent. Sounds like a firmware bug to me
too now. One other thing which you may not have tried is booting m$ then
warmbooting into linux (don't turn off the machine between boots). I
just remembered that with older versions ofthe driver this was the only
way to get the multiface to work.
I can't remember if you are running cvs or not (probably no).
Do you think it could make a difference when the modules have been
loaded already on boot up, but removed later on?
They shouldn't as long as you remove them before running hdsploader :)

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No!
We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything
I've ever done.
