Your point is well taken. But I quote
http://www.lids.org/install/install_0.11.x_1.x.html

This text will guide you throught the installation
of LIDS on an average Linux installation. You will
need to patch your kernel to use LIDS. So first you
need to get yourself the vanilla kernel source from
www.kernel.org. Do not use any kernel source that
is provided with your distribution because that one
will most likely be patched.

Where does this leave us? I wonder if anyone has gotten
it to work, one way or the other.
Mike.
