Thanks for the responses David and Randy,

Question for David:

Do I need to install the Kernel_Source rpm from my rh9 cds to make my kernel
headers available?

I have this and a pcmica kernel package installed when I do an rpm query:
kernel-2.4.20-6

less /usr/src/emu10k1-v0.20a/config
# Driver build options
KERNEL_SOURCE :=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
DEBUG := n
SEQUENCER_SUPPORT := n

Currently I have a link in the build directory:
12:32AM[2030] ls -ltr /lib/modules/`uname -r`/
total 336
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           31 May 28 23:53 build ->
../../../usr/src/linux-2.4.20-6
drwxr-xr-x    8 root     root         4096 May 28 23:53 kernel

Suggestions for the my next step?

Regards, Frank K

This looks like that package builds a module for the kernel.
as it does that, it needs the kernel headers. do what the error message
says. Edit that config file, and change the KERNEL_SOURCE variable
declared there to where your redhat  kernel headers are.
i.e. mine are at:
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8
because thats the kernel im running.
i.e.
[root@xxxxxx root]# rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.4.20-8
