And their proprietary module does NOT build on all distros. Kernel modules should be generic, and definitely a kernel module for version 1.5.0 should function with version 1.5.2. Furthermore its not an old kernel 2.6.22, considering some people are still using 2.4 kernels, and distros which hold back are still using 2.6.18. If kernel modules are supplies and distributed with released kernels they should be expected to function with the end product, surely thats not too much to ask. -- Best Wishes Richard Bown ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Registered Linux User 365161 OS Mandriva 2008.0 Kernel 2.6.22.9-desktop-1mdv HAM Callsign G8JVM : Locator IO82SP QRV all bands 80mtrs to 3 cms ,( non WARC ) http://www.software-radio.org.uk ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
