Hello List,
I thought there was only one kernel-source RPM for all kernels,
and I certainly have not been able to find more than one kernel-source RPM on the distro CDs and on the Internet. Can you please tell me if my assumption about there being only
one kernel-source RPM for all kernels, e.g. UP and SMP, is correct? The reason that I ask is that I have been trying to compile the Intel
e1000
module (version 5.2.30.1) for both the UP and SMP kernels. I have been
receiving
some errors that I emailed Intel about and they said there was more
than one kernel
source. Perhaps someone could suggest how I can avoid the errors (as
outlined in
my email to intel below). Thank you.

-> Hello, Matthew. -> -> Thank you for contacting Intel technical support. There are as many kernel -> sources as there are kernel builds - it is a
one-to-one relationship.
-> -> To avoid the error, you must in fact get the kernel source for your running -> kernel, i.e.
2.4.18-3smp.
