Hi Just grab the src rpm and use the spec file from that to build your rpm. Create a patch of your changes like this. Make a copy of the file you wish to patch (in the location of the source tree) and call it something.orig. Now make your changes to orig file, then diff -Naur <path>/something <path>/something.orig somthing.diff In the spec file, you add an item called; Patch1: something.diff Then in the %prep section of the spec file you would add; %patch1 -- Cheers Malcolm ��� (Linux Counter #276890) SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 (x86_64) Kernel 2.6.27.39-0.3-default up 1 day 15:58, 3 users, load average: 1.13, 0.43, 0.16 GPU GeForce 8600 GTS Silent - CUDA Driver Version: 190.18

Ta. If you have troubles, post back with the file changes I can eith do the patch and spec file for you, else build it on OBS for you... -- Cheers Malcolm ��� (Linux Counter #276890) SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 (x86_64) Kernel 2.6.27.39-0.3-default up 1 day 22:25, 3 users, load average: 0.04, 0.12, 0.21 GPU GeForce 8600 GTS Silent - CUDA Driver Version: 190.18

If you can get 0.133 to build on the OBS, I'd love to see how. It's been failing for me since part way through the 11.2 development cycle and still fails for 11.2 and Factory. Strangely, it fails for Mandriva 2010 but does build for Fedora versions 9 to 12 and Mandriva 2007 to 2009.
