Re: kernel source and nVidia drivers - Start Over

Note: in earlier posts, yum update kernel-devel downloaded and installed 1.6.14-14xx rather then 1656. It took me a long time to figure this out.

Problem: updated to kernel-2.6.14-1.1656 and can't get nVidia drivers compiled.

Downloaded kernel-2.6.14-1.1656_FC4.src.rpm and installed with rpm -Uvh

cd'd to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS

 ran rpmbuild -bp --target $(arch) kernel-2.6.spec

copied the resulting linux-2.6.14 subdirectory to /usr/src and made a sym link 'linux' to /usr/src/linux-2.6.14

 tried to again build the nVidia driver by running:
    NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8178-pkg1.run

this again failed saying that /usr/src/linux/include/linux/kernel.h was not installed, but it is. Any ideas?

Thanks for putting up with this!

Bob
