...snip lots of warning...

Yes, known pb. This is because I'm only rebuilding the via part of the 
kernel drm modules. I guess (not tried yet) that if I include all the 
available modules (or at least, all that are available in original FC 
kernel), this will go away. Anyway, if you only have one video card and 
this card is unichrome based, this is harmless.

I'll try to build a better package tonight. And I'll also try to figure 
out how to name it.

Regards,

Xavier
