+<PRE>Hi,
+
+I saw that in nvidia-current.spec the nvidia module is being removed
+from kernel after running dkms install:
+
+%post -n dkms-%{drivername}
+/usr/sbin/dkms --rpm_safe_upgrade add -m %{drivername} -v
+%{version}-%{release} &amp;&amp;
+/usr/sbin/dkms --rpm_safe_upgrade build -m %{drivername} -v
+%{version}-%{release} &amp;&amp;
+/usr/sbin/dkms --rpm_safe_upgrade install -m %{drivername} -v
+%{version}-%{release} --force
+
+# rmmod any old driver if present and not in use (e.g. by X)
+rmmod nvidia &gt; /dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1 || true
+
+this makes that after running dkms install the module is removed, this
+loosing the purpose of isntalling this dkms package, see the output:
+
+Building module:
+cleaning build area....
+make KERNELRELEASE=3.3.1-desktop-2.mga2
+SYSSRC=/lib/modules/3.3.1-desktop-2.mga2/build module........
+cleaning build area....
+cleaning kernel tree (make mrproper)....
+
+DKMS: build Completed.
+
+nvidia-current.ko.xz:
+ - Installation
+ - Installing to /lib/modules/3.3.1-desktop-2.mga2/dkms/drivers/char/drm/
+
+depmod..........
+ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia_current': No such device
+
+Is possible that someone can remove that &quot;rmmod&quot; command from the %post section?
+</PRE>
