Is it giving you the name of the network interface when you load the
module. (eth0, eth1, etc.)? If so, then try using ifconfig to
configure the interface, then see if the same thing happens with
lsmod. The rmmod command is behaving just as it should. If you type
rmmod and a module name, the module will be removed from memory.

> Hi all,
> I am running Debian woody 3.0 r 2 and have gotten my tulip module

> Further more, when I do r m mod tulip, it removes the module

> and yet modprobe tulip gives me the hardware address of my card?
> Thanks a lot. Jes
