Wrong the rpm build will *WORK* I promise it will if done correct with
out the other cruft..  You did not read the rest of the threads?  Ned
showed how to do it the right way.

rpmbuild -ba  --target=i686 --define 'kvariants "put kvariant_here"'
video4linux-kmod.spec

knownvariants=@(BOOT|PAE|@(big|huge)mem|debug|enterprise|kdump|? \
(large)smp|uml| xen[0U]?(-PAE)|xen)

--target=x86_64  if you have 64 bit..  

And it works on the main CentOS Kernel also this way,,,just tried it for
the hell of it.

And you ask what does kernel-rt have to do with it?  Read the posts with
the disclaimer.
