Calm down, that's four requests in four days, I don't suppose you'll be 
left waiting for long...

Having said that, I wish Red Hat (Fedora) would fix things so kernel 
modules didn't need updating every time, maybe by using a magic number 
for the API version or something. I do understand they'd find it hard to 
make it stick for ever, though they probably ought to for RHEL at least 
within minor releases unless there absolutely has to be a change, but 
needing rebuilds for every new kernel when they release two kernels a 
week seems a bit mean...

Cheers,

John.
