In order to get my USB wireless network adapter driver working, I need the kernel source, apparently.  Which .rpm would I want, then, please?

    The file "/home/thufir/Desktop/kernel-2.6.10-1.741_FC3.src.rpm" is a source RPM which cannot be installed with system-config packages.

    Then, I need a different rpm to install the kernel?


    Thanks,

Hello fan of Dune,

This is the SOURCE rpm package so if you want the BINARY kernel package it is indeed the wrong one. You want the one without src in its name.

You could still potentially install that source package using the shell and then enjoy a bit of compilation
