I am not sure I understand you correctly (or you me?). What I mean is set up the mol-modules-source package similar to alsa-source and device3dfx-source (which is a small package that I have never compiled but might be useful as reference for making it work with kernel-package. At least sheep_net requires kernel-source (or kernel-headers) to build, not only a running kernel. Maybe putting sheep_net in a package for itself (that would make it available for other architectures as well) and include the source and a compile-script in mol-modules for the rest (which I believe I succeeded compiling without kernel-headers available). The current situation is bad: mol-modules-source creates a kernel-modules .deb of the _same_ version as the official .deb. The naming scheme of kernel-package (and kernellab) avoids that in most situations. - Jonas -- Jonas Smedegaard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.jones.dk/~jonas/ IT-guide dr.
