Andreas,

That worked fine, but it is confusing having the package and kernel
use different numbering.

gaf@linux-mdju:~> rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-default-2.6.31-7.1.i586

gaf@linux-mdju:~> uname -a
Linux linux-mdju 2.6.31-rc9-7-default #1 SMP 2009-09-08 18:49:15 +0200
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I guess rc9 became final, so the source rpm was renamed without
updating the makefile internally to reflect that change.

Anyway I have it working now.  Thanks for pushing me in the right direction.

Greg
