No - but the fault only happens when you are starting from a fesh tree. Running mrporper would not delete the old .so file (kbuild 'lost' knowledge of it). So most people have just untarred a new kernel on top of the old one and it still worked. Also the reason why I failed to fix it in the first place. xconfig and gconfig worked even after mrproper - because the .so file survived. Sam
