Please help Long complicated answer: you'd need to get the src rpm, edit the .config used to add support for the driver, rebuild the rpm.... etc. Short and easy answer "yum --enablerepo install kernel" The stock kernel matches what the upstream vendor provides. The unsupported kernel in the centosplus repository has a few more drivers built in, including bt878 support for compliant video capture/tv tuner cards. -- Jim Perrin System Architect - UIT Ft Gordon & US Army Signal Center
