They can. Unfortunately last time I tried them they were incorrectly packaged and hardcoded to build against 2.6.16 rather than the kernel headers you point them at. I really should file a bug report. The package also modifies itself on debian/rules clean, so overall it is really in an awful state. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
