Hi,

I'd like to install modules as dkms tree in order to avoid recompiling the 
modules from the full source tree.
Is there a clean way to create the <module>-only source-tree from the full 
sources or should I do it myself by hand (so I can move it to the dkms source 
dir)?
Right now, I've identified modules includes in modules/shared and lib/includes.

Thanks a lot for your help.

PS: I'm trying (in fact) to create a source rpm for Mandriva 2009.1 that 
creates 3 packages from the full open-vm-tools source archive.
- open-vm-tools
- open-vm-tools-devel
- dkms-open-vm-tools

IMHO, creating a kmod-open-vm-tools is not the way to go if not maintained by 
the distro provided as you have to monitor each kernel update and rebuild the 
kmod package eachtime the kernel is updated in the main distro.
