I'd really really like it if someone inside the fence line could find (or be allocated) the time to sit down and think through DKMS and see if it makes sense to provide DKMS in core, as the preferred solution to some of the add-on kernel-module problems. I don't know if if DKMS can solve all of the add-on module issues, I'm no expert, but I'd have to agree that right now DKMS looks like a best path forward to me. -jef
