RE: Installing Kernel Source

You can do a rpm -qa | grep kernel to see if it is installed and if so,
do a rpm -ql kernel-source-2.4.20-8 and see where it put the files.
I've always found that if they are installed it is
/usr/src/linux-2.4-<version> so if it isn't there then it is likely not
really installed.

Subject: Installing Kernel Source


Im attempting to configure my Logitech Quickcam and the module requires
the
kernel source to be installed.
Im using RH9 and the 2.4.20-8 kernel, as updated by using the Yum
package
manager.

I issued a: yum install kernel-source and it reported already having the
most recent version installed, but the camera make command is failing
because it says it cannot locate the kernel source.
The error line from make is:
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/build/include/linux/config.h: No such file or
directory

/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/ exists, and build is a symlink pointing to
/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-8/, but that directory doesnt exist.

If yum says the kernel source is installed, any idea where it might be?
Or
how can I otherwise install it?

Thanks.
