I will submit the bug report later tonight when I can get on the 
machine.  Is there a particular bug or should I create one.


I wanted to use EFI but with the change in kernel and signed modules.  I 
didn't get it working.  It was a new machine this spring after a fight 
with a couple of defective Gigabyte MBs.  I was not in any mood to fight 
with the kernel.

The machine needs Windows for two games that won't work in Wine due to 
the anti-cheat software.

 From what I can see, the akmod didn't build the rpm properly and thus 
didn't install it properly.  After building the kmod rpm, removing the 
old one and installing the new one, a reboot worked.

Thanks for the help.
