g of spec files.. Just use a temporary rpmbuild directory PER BUILD. Why would you want to keep the stuff that's in there? You have the src.rpm at the end. And an even better answer is: use mock (see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Projects/Mock ) for clean buiding. -- --Jos Vos --

Intel N10 graphics and i915 driver

ows has no problem at all, so this suggests that the Linux video driver is not smart enough. So my questions are: (a) does there exist a better video driver for this chip and/or (b) is the i915 driver expected to provide better video performance for this type of use in the future? Thanks, -- --
