Sangoma Wanrouter cards also have this problem. The driver comes with the kernel but Sangoma occasionally releases updated drivers. So far the only options I have found are either install the new driver from a tarball (not good) or install the rpm with --force (even worse IMHO). I love their hardware and drivers but their rpm is a problem. I was not aware that one could force things in the %post. If this is right I will need to look into this. I would really prefer not to have to rebuild a kernel rpm just to update a module. Too much like work for me. -- .............Tom "Nothing would please me more than being able to tdiehl@xxxxxxxxxxxx hire ten programmers and deluge the hobby market with good software." -- Bill Gates 1976 We are still waiting ....
