Some way to execute the compile before X is started. I am already detecting a kernel change and recompiles selected needed modules and reboots but this happens by /etc/rc.d/rc.local. This is too late. X is already trying to start and /etc/rc.d/rc.local never gets executed as the machine locks. This is for more than just one machine. Thanks, Jerry
