First thing. Why are the drivers in /temp? You're not running your system as root are you? If you are, you really shouldn't be. The idea of root/su is for purely admin activities and never for just general use. You need to install kernel-devel (yum -y install kernel-devel). Next, get the driver and as a *non-root* user, dearchive and build. Once built, su (enter root password) make install. NEVER USE A SYSTEM AS ANYTHING OTHER THAN A USER! I hope that is clear enough. I shall now return you to your scheduled programming... TTFN Paul -- "Logic, my dear Zoe, is merely the ability to be wrong with authority" - Dr Who
