Success.. with a tiny proviso.
I tried it running Gnome in a command line. No error message shown, just nothing
happened. (I should have known / guessed)
Rebooted, failed, ^-ALT-F3 to get a CLI. Log in as root
Ran the command /usr/sbin/akmods --force
and akmods built.
# reboot
and I'm in business again.
Thank you.
