Modules not licensed as GPL as atleast one of its choices are not
going to be included in the upstream kernel. If its a GPL compatible
license its can be packaged in Fedora Extras but the kernel module
package naming has no consensus yet. There is a strong desire to see
such modules merged upstream too.
Went back and looked, and indeed vt1211.c is GPL, so I'm not sure why
it hasn't made it into the distribution... I guess it's not part of the
CVS tree
for the kernel?
