It looks as if you are missing the difference between "kernel" and "kernel-source" (you want both). Look for something like this: $ rpm -qa | grep kern kernel-source-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl <============ kernel-utils-2.4-9.1.101.fedora glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.36 kernel-doc-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl kernel-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl kernel-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl <============= If kernel-source-* is missing. You need to install "kernel-source". Out of the box I suspect you want to use "up2date" up2date --install kernel-source Others would install then use "yum" yum install kernel-source The install should populate this dir for you and set up the links: /usr/src/linux-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl/ You may also wish to update and pickup some of the recent bug fixes. With nVidia be sure to "export CC=gcc32" to your environment so the compile/link/load of the nVidia driver works. The Fedora kernel was built gcc32 and you need the driver to match. > > Thanks, > > > > __________________________________ > > Do you Yahoo!? > > Free Pop-Up Blocker - Get it now > > http://companion.yahoo.com/ > > > > > > -- > > fedora-list mailing list > > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > > To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list > > > > Sorry to answer a question with a question, but.
