Re: [Wlug] Fedora Core 6 kernel source???

Perhaps the kernel-headers package will help? -Don -----Original Message----- From: wlug-bounces(a)mail.wlug.org [mailto:wlug-bounces@mail.wlug.org]On Behalf Of ken jones Sent: Sunday, December 03, 2006 10:04 PM To: wlug(a)mail.wlug.org Subject: [Wlug] Fedora Core 6 kernel source??? I have a SoundBlaster Live sound card. The driver is emu10k1. ALSA provides some modules that need to be built into the kernel.

If you want to rebuild the kernel, get the kernel .src.rpm. -Jeff

Fedora Core 6 kernel source???

I have a SoundBlaster Live sound card. The driver is emu10k1. ALSA provides some modules that need to be built into the kernel. No matter what I do the builds can not find the appropriate version.h file. I am trying to build the kernel from kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6. Previous Core versions provided a kernel-source rpm. Core 6 does not. This time it is called kernel-devel. Something is very different. Can any of you point me to a cook book level WEB page that will point my way... -----------------snip example of trouble------------ checking for directory with kernel source... /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2849.fc6/source checking for directory with kernel build... /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2849.fc6/build checking for kernel version... The file /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2849.fc6/source/include/linux/version.h does not exist. Please, install the package with full kernel sources for your distribution or use --with-kernel=dir option to specify another directory with kernel sources (default is /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2849.fc6/source). ------------end snip------------------ I tried the --with-kernel=dir option. I would like sound again. Help! Ken Jones
