Sorry, I should have been more descriptive. They have the FUSE /kernel
module/ disabled. External kernel modules are, uh, interesting to build,
as I understand it. Probably not for the weak hearted. They need to
match the running kernel, so every time the kernel is updated, you need
to rebuild the module.
I thought I heard that ATrpms is building said kernel module. Google
pointed me to this:
http://atrpms.net/dist/el5/fuse/
CentOS has occasionally built kernels with options turned on that aren't
on in the RHEL kernels (Appletalk comes to mind). Don't know if they'll
do the same for 5.
