[driverloader] 1.76 crashes on Inspiron 8600 and SuSE 9.1

[Jimmy Oliver]

Marc,
Wow.  That seemed to do the trick.  I am running 1.76 and everything is
solid.  I completely removed 1.75 with an rpm -e driverloader, and then
installed 1.76.  I added the line from below to my
/etc/modprobe.conf.local and voila, no crashes.  Thanks for the help on
fixing that little annyoing nusance.
