This would be the best way. vmware (among its other current virtues)
initiates an automated rebuild after a kernel update the first time you
try to run it. That's not TOO bad either.
I don't think it would be hard to make an RPM that had the minimal smarts
to check for an updated NV blob and rebuild appropriately. ideally,
NV would just do that themselves, and make it available via a yum repo.
Absolutely.
