I'm actually surprised that this would matter at all. I'm currently using the Madwifi driver, compiled for the latest kernel using the current gcc (3.4.2-6.fc3). As far as I can tell, the kernel vermagic should only care about GCC major and minor numbers, not micro version numbers (my modules claim vermagic: 2.6.11-1.14_FC3 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4 ) and if there has been a C API break in a stable bugfix release I'm sure the GCC developers want to know it! That's definitely not supposed to happen... ¯Hy /Per -- Per Bjornsson <perbj@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Ph.D. Candidate, Department of Applied Physics, Stanford University
