Fedora Discussion mailing-list doesn't seem to be the most appropriate place for this question, but I don't know where to ask it. Should the out-of-tree method for building kernel modules still apply to the 2.6.12 kernel ? I am running FC3, but built the 2.6.12-rc6 kernel to take advantage of DVB support for the HD-3000 video capture card. The results are good, DVB support works well. Now, I again want to update ati_remote.c to make the ATI Remote Wonder a little more user-friendly. But when I tried the out-of-tree method to build ati_remote.ko, and ran "depmod -a" followed by "modinfo ati_remote", the results indicate that the original ati_remote.ko will be loaded when "modprobe ati_remote" is issued. It appears that the module was successfully compiled and ati_remote.ko was installed in /lib/modules/2.6.12-rc6/extra. Why won't the version of the module in"/extra" be recognized as the one to be loaded ? Thanks for any insight/help/clues to a solution. -- MM
