The -mm kernel already has this. Could it be possible to enable the regular kernel to use fuse too?
This task depends upon

could you give more info of what it is ?

Sorry for not being more thorough. Fuse is a kernel module and some userspace tools that enable the user to implement a fully functional filesystem in userspace. A number of interesting projects use fuse like EncFs (an encrypted file system in user space) and many more. The project's homepage is http://fuse.sourceforge.net/ .

I've never used FUSE, but I downloaded the source tarball and built it on an Arch box with just the stock kernel package. So apparently there are no changes needed in the kernel itself. We just need a FUSE package.

Am I right here?

I think so. I'll investigate that. What confused me was looking at the kernel26mm config and seeing an option for it. I'll just make a package. Sorry for wasting your time :)

When FUSE is built with the stock kernel it will build the required kernel module (fuse.ko).
You will then need to run depmod to enable it.

No kernel module is made when built with the mm kernel.

PKGBUILD's for fuse, EncFs and rlog can be found at http://www.castro-design.co.uk/archlinux
