I have kernel-headers and kernel-devel installed, as well as akmod-tp_smapi-0.40-1.fc11.i686.rpm which I installed by sudo yum localinstall akmod-tp_smapi-0.40-1.fc11.i686.rpm --nogpgcheck According to <http://fedorasolved.org/Members/zcat/akmods> I should now run "sudo service akmods restart", but when I do this I get the error message ------------------------------------ [tim@blanche ~]$ sudo service akmods restart Checking kmods exist for 2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE [ OK ] Files needed for building modules against kernel 2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE could not be found as the following directories are missing: /usr/src/kernels/2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE/ /lib/modules/2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE/build/ [FAILED] ------------------------------------ Both these directories are present (though empty) ------------------------------------ [tim@blanche ~]$ ls -lsd /usr/src/kernels/2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE 4 drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Jul 28 00:20 /usr/src/kernels/2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE [tim@blanche ~]$ ls -lsd /lib/modules/2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE/build 0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 50 Jul 13 02:31 /lib/modules/2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE/build -> ../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.38.8-35.fc15.i686.PAE -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
