 This is the kernel-module needed by the proprietary binary nvidia driver.
 You also need the nvidia-driver package from SlackBuilds.org.
+
+To build the package for a kernel different from the running one,
+start the script setting the KERNEL variable as in
+    KERNEL=2.6.33.7 ./nvidia-kernel.SlackBuild
