RPMForge offers a number of dkms-based modules (like the one for the nvidia driver). dkms is, however, not a supported/preferred method by CentOS (kmod is). Among other things, it requires gcc which is not favored in the server environment (so I understand). In this particular case, drbd is provided as SRPMS, and CentOS simply rebuilds from them. Akemi
