NM not detecting device when kernel module unloaded

[Daniel Qarras <dqarras yahoo com>]

Hi,

it seems that when starting NM while the kernel module for a network
device has been unloaded, the device is not initialized/detected by NM,
otherwise it works all ok. Ie, rmmod ipw2200 && ./NetworkManager fails
to detect my wireless interface but modprobe ipw2200 &&
./NetworkManager sees the wireless device. Is this a bug or a feature?

Thanks.
