I tried this and it keeps failing on the same module build. This is with 
2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 running now.
I keep getting a newer libdrm build with each attempt. The newly 
generated rpm upgrades fine when installed.
Is this source checkout and compile similar to that of Gentoo installations?

I get the same failure with the new script. The config.h file missing is 
one complaint on exit from the script.

As earlier comments from the developers for X. Future inclusion of the 
driver would be great.
Exposure of this driver to testing by making this available in rawhide 
after FC6 is released would be ideal.

I do like the concept that the niff script is using to build these 
modules also. So until then, I'll check the site for newer versions 
occasionally.

Thanks,
Jim
