Hi all, I have a few kernel drivers that I like to install that are not included in the kernel itself but have rpms or src.rpms available from Livna (ntfs, nvidia, etc) . These of course have to be rebuilt or reinstalled for a new kernel. Sometimes I update my kernel before Livna gets the rpms rebuilt, so it can be easier to just rebuild the src.rpm. However, it would be really convenient to be able to rebuild the src.rpms before rebooting to the new kernel, so everything just works. So, now to my question: is it possible to rebuild a kernel driver src.rpm for a non-running kernel? Is there a standard way to do it? I tried doing this with the nvidia driver for FC5T3 once with very poor results. I had to go hack into the spec file to change the way it got the kernel version (it used some self-contained script to get the kernel version (or versions)). Not at all an ideal way to do it. It would be really nice to just pass in a KVER=2.6.16-1.2069_FC4 or something with the rpmbuild --rebuild command. Jonathan
