|
|
say i dloaded some source code and ran ./configure && make && make install to build/compile the app. If the app contained some drivers, how would I remove them?
locate driver_foo.o;
rm /path/to driver.o ??
Man, I've definately borked this time. But it's fun though :lol: Never given this much control under doze

The app contained kernel drivers?
They'd be in:
| Code: | | /lib/modules/kernel-2.6.10yadayada/kernel/drivers/XXXXX |

aha. I've located all of the drivers with the locate command.
I'm gonna [run as root]
| Code: | | find / -iname foo -ok rm '{}' \; |
This would remove all instances of foo including the drivers. The -ok is for confirmation from the terminal.[/code]
