Nah, I consider kernel modules just a semi-organized way of patching the kernel, and kernel changes are not allowed. *insert standard rant about why "oh, we don't modify the kernel, we just load a driver!" doesn't mean squat in Linux, and it very much _does_ modify the kernel* Cheers, Muli -- Muli Ben-Yehuda http://www.mulix.org | http://mulix.livejournal.com/
