I'm asking because I have a /lib directory and the kernel sources for it. the problem is there is a closed source driver in the /lib directory and I want to compile a new kernel image, but can't re-compile the closed source modules. I'm guessing my new kernel isn't working because it's looking in the path with the + after being recompiled. thanks, Chris
