  Yet another hit-and-run, flame-throwing posters.  For starters, go
read http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html.  Then, examine
your own attitude in the tone of your posts.
  From what I can tell, the respondents to this thread have been plenty
accommodating, especially given the NUMEROUS times this has been
discussed.
  The basic answer is that if you *do* need the kernel source to build
kernel modules, then the build process for that module is broken.  There
has certainly been disagreement on this list about the best way to
provide a build environment for kernel modules, but I believe the latest
incarnation of that (kernel-devel to match each kernel) meets the needs
that many have discussed on this list in the past.
  As you've noticed, you're not going to find much support for restoring
the old, broken way of doing things.  Such is life.  Fedora Core isn't
for everyone.  If another distribution meets your needs better, by all
means, use it.
