As I recall, someone answered that you should get


a kernel from kernel.org,

set CONFIG_REGPARM and CONFIG_4KSTACKS to "n" then


recompile your kernel

that way. You cannot use the Fedora kernel as it


won't compile with those

options.

Just from memory... search the archives for Truth.



Alternatively, get this kernel while you wait...

I just wanted to say that I tried the kernel from
the link above and it works straight up witht the NVIDIA 5336 drivers I
was playing Warcraft III a few minutes ago but I would like to recompile
just for some optimizations does anyone know where the source for
that kernel is.

I think I need the actual source of the kernel, I thought the src.rpm was just for rebuilding the rpm but I'm just going to try a kernel from kernel.org and try turning off the 4k stacks.
Thanks



src.rpm includes sources, patches and spec
rpm -qpl xxx.src.rpm
