I usually don't install the kernel-sourcecode RPM (nÃe kernel- source) since I don't want an additional 100-200MB of stuff on my disk if I can avoid it. But every so often, I have to install VMWare or some other software that wants the kernel source to be installed. "up2date kernel-sourcecode" has been a fantastically easy way to do that without have to learn arcana. Cheers, -- Rodolfo J. Paiz <rpaiz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
