You can create the file by doing a full rebuild of the kernel-source in the directory.. then copying the file out to the /lib/modules/-ver-/build directory. I also changed my Makefile to stop 'make mrproper' from destroying Modules.symvers as a short term workaround since my rebuilds of livna.org nVIDIA kernel module RPMs require making a copy of the entire source tree (and then it does a mrproper). As commented by Arjan the Makefile (for the module) is certainly broken, but we have to workaround it. -- Andrew Farris, CPE senior (California Polytechnic State University, SLO) fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :: lmorgul on irc.freenode.net "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
