use blacklist in module config to block one.
Just put in/etc/modprobe.confblacklist orinoco
Unfortunately this is not work at least it is not work with FC4. I can blacklist eepro100 and 8139cp.
blacklist eepro100
blacklist 8139cp
but I can't blacklist orinoco_pci
blacklist orinoco_pci
It always loads itself with or without blacklist. That's why I have to do 'rm -f orinoco*.* && depmod -a' when the new kernel arrives. Seems that users are directed to use unsecure orinoco (wep) driver rather than secure hostap (wpa/wpa2,tkip,aes) driver for their prism2 hardware.

The hostap drivers are also much better behaved for rfmon than the orinoco drivers for prism2.
