[ATrpms-users] FC5 kernel 2111_FC5xen0 missing symbols and nvidia driver

With the latest FC5 xen0 kernel (i686) the nvidia kernel module won't
load because of a missing xen symbol:

nvidia: Unknown symbol xen_tlb_flush

The nvidia kmdl rpm probably needs patching as described here:

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=68703

Any plans for an updated nvidia kmdl or an updated kernel rpm for that
matter? It seems the needed xen_tlb_flush symbol is still not being
exported by the default fc5 kernel.

The symbol is there:
XEN_TLB_FLUSH=`grep xen_tlb_flush \
$ /boot/System.map-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5xen0 | colrm 9`
echo $XEN_TLB_FLUSH
c0114d64

Thanks,
Jurgen

BTW this is with:
