<P> <FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I just found a howto on Fedora Core 3 that says that kernel sources are not required to build modules. Please reference <A HREF="http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc3/x86">http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc3/x86</A> in the package specific notes under kernel. Basically, the kernels (and I think the older versions of Fedora do this as well) install a /lib/modules/.../build directory that has all the headers required to build modules. A Makefile sample is shown that could be used - I made a quick change to the Makefile under zaptel and it worked without a flaw. I'm not sure I'm qualified to submit the patch, though.</FONT></P>
