Maybe it's just because I've missed most of the thread, but which license requirements exactly could that be ? The kernel still is GPL, isn't it ? So, any device vendor needs to hand out the exact kernel source he hat built the image from, anyways. (by the way: we should start a flash mob action of demanding sources from the pocket-computers-with-3g vendors, but that's another story ;-)) So, what kind of license issue could it be, which prevents putting the files (that you'd have to hand out anyways) directly into filesystem, while allowing them in a .ko in the same filesystem ? I'm confused. > Looks like you should just tar xvzf > this-is-a-kernel-module-I-promise.ko /usr/src/linux/include :-). We should ask coreutils folks to add an ELF encapsulation to tar ;-) --mtx -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult Free software and Linux embedded engineering info@xxxxxxxxx -- +49-151-27565287
