That worked Lars: Results are as follows:
[root at Blade ~]# rpm -qa *ndiswrapper*
ndiswrapper-1.2-0.lvn.3.4
kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4-1.2-0.lvn.3.4
[root at Blade ~]# rpm -e ndiswrapper-1.2-0.lvn.3.4
kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4-1.2-0.lvn.3.4
[root at Blade ~]# which ndiswrapper
/usr/bin/which: no ndiswrapper in
(/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin)
[root at Blade ~]#
