[driverloader] driverloader breaks suspend (for Laptops) on 2.6.9 ?

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

using the 'dldrstop' command will also bring down the wireless interface 
on supported distributions (by using the 'ifdown' command available on 
many distributions) before removing the module from the kernel. This is 
more clean than simply doing simply a 'rmmod' on the module.
