Jose,
I installed from source pulled from kernel.org. I don't know if there
are rpms anywhere for this.

Mates,
What is the best way to get and install the 2.6.20 kernel on Suse
10? Are there development binaries somewhere? Do I have to compile from
source? I am doing this because I need the version 1.3 dri kernel
driver. Any other suggestions.

Hi
Nope, I don't think so, I had to build from scratch, I don't know of any
distro using that version already. Even 10.2 does not come with that
version.
Here is a link for kernel compiling, free to download on pdf format:

Hope it helps
Great link, Thanks. I haven't compiled the kernel from source before, but if
I made it through compiling Xorg, Mesa and drm, there is no reason not to
try. The only concern I have is how to make sure I get all of the pieces and
modules that the kernel supplied by opensuse includes. Will my .config from
the 2.6.13 kernel source I got from yast work with the new kernel source
from kernel.org? I just don't want to thrash my system by accident...
