Hi Neale,

For 2.6.38 you should be able to use the Orange-Branch from CVS (the branch
OrangeFS releases come from). Directions for CVS checkout are at the bottom
of http://www.orangefs.org/support/. If you still have issues with the
kernel module let me know but I know it builds on Fedora 15 / 2.6.38.6-27.
In 2.6.39 and beyond there are more changes that break the kernel module
that don't have fixes committed yet.

Thanks,
Michael
