They are building currently -- will probably take two or three hours until all kmod's are build and published (I tried to build them yesterday evening [CET], but the buildsys got stuck -- that's life).
Cool. I am kinda curious about the whole process behind this. Is it all automated or what? If it is, maybe a SETI type distributed cluster for recompiling such kernel dependant packages would come in handy.

Sweet. It isn't really that big a deal, however, I suppose such a plug, installed by default would be handy. BTW and OT, the madwifi drivers I got from Livna for FC5 do not work properly at all, while those I had from ATrpms for FC4 worked perfectly. Any suggestions on where to start troubleshooting? -- As a boy I jumped through Windows, as a man I play with Penguins.
