Please don't tell module authors to unconditionally use `uname -r`. I frequently build kernels for differentd hosts, and if I don't, I'll certainly compile the needed modules before installing the kernel. Therefore /lib/modules/`uname -r` is most certainly the completely wrong place to look for the kernel source. -- Ich danke GMX dafür, die Verwendung meiner Adressen mittels per SPF verbreiteten Lügen zu sabotieren.
