Ouch, seems a bit early.  I saw an announcement on the
Fedora-announce-list when FC5 officially went EOL, and just before it
did, they released a final kernel.  IIRC (and I don't always these days)
they officially retired FC5 a couple of days *after* they said they
would.  I don't remember seeing a similar email about FC6 (did I miss
it?)  In any event, my needs are slightly different.  The cubbi_suspend2
version of this kernel just got released today and that's what I run on
my laptop (until I get around to upgrading to F8), so I was kinda hoping
that there would be ipw3945-1.2.2/mac80211/ieee80211 kmdls for the
suspend2 kernel built by atrpms.   B^(

I am able to build the fglrx-kmod stuff from livna, but I was never able
to get your build environment to work for me.  [Its probably my fault,
but I can't find the proper documentation that makes it just work for me.]

(hmm, I don't seem to have atrpms-rpm-config installed....)
I'll give it a try tomorrow and report back.
