I used to use ndiswrapper for Athero wireless card, it worked well under Ubuntu 8.04, what i did is to uninstall Athero drivers from “Restricted Hardware”(I cannot find this kind of application in Suse), then install using Ndiswrapper, however, there is no “Restricted Hardware” in Suse for me to delete system installed driver, then I got this from dmesg:
ndiswrapper version 1.52 loaded (smp=yes, preempt=no)

My question is, how to do a remove of driver under OpenSUSE such like unchecking drivers in “Restricted Hardware” in ubuntu, I opened Network devices in Yast, the Athero one is “Not Configured” and i cannot edit it or delete it.
Thanks a lot!
