Me and my kernel rpm builds ... this all works along the same idea I have
|
|
been aiming for, but the freaking RedHat Kernel srpms still have been stump
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
If we could get this and the alsa driver stuff working, it would be whole
|
|
lot easier to try out a newer kernel ... but then the size of these rpms
|
|
are huge, at least for us n^1 world courties ... ;-{ ...
|
|
|
|
I will keep watching and hoping that somebody comes up with a great working
|
|
idea ...
|
|
|
|
Thanks guys.
