Rodriguez <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> I'm not sure this makes any sense. I thought the point of the compat project was to support upstream kernels, not distro ones? I'm not even sure I know how to replicate the above process in Fedora, since we would only have kernels available from a given release in each release's repository. John -- John W.
