Mmm...actually that doesn't work on my system. It says that the file kernel-2.4.21.6.5tmb-1-1mdk.src.rpm is not a "spec file". I'm not too familiar with .src.rpm files... it seems the only thing I can build from the source package file with rpmbuild (my next logical guess) is the binary, but I need the kernel-source file to compile the NVIDIA drivers. How would I go about building the source file from the source package (.src.rpm)? Sorry if this is a newbie question...I'm more used to compiling from source and straight RPM. Ican't use the straight RPM here as the NVIDIA installer will complain that it has not been compiled with the same compiler as the one I have (gcc-3.2.3-1mdk) and refuse to compile the module.

No it doesn't... This is what I get [EMAIL PROTECTED] boot]# cat kernel.h-2.4.21-6.5tmbenterprise /* This file is automatically generated at boot time. */ #ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_H_ #define __BOOT_KERNEL_H_ #ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_SMP #define __BOOT_KERNEL_SMP 0 #endif #ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_FB #define __BOOT_KERNEL_FB 0 #endif #ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_SECURE #define __BOOT_KERNEL_SECURE 0 #endif #ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_ENTERPRISE #define __BOOT_KERNEL_ENTERPRISE 0 #endif #ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_UP #define __BOOT_KERNEL_UP 1 #endif #endif So this might be the problem...and that may be why changing the "extraversion" in makefile to 6.5tmbenterprise, like Svetoslave suggested, didn't work either. Can I just change the kernel.h file? It says it's autogenerated... Since I usually like to customize my kernels anyway, I'll just recompile a new one, and that should work (that's what I usually do when trying a new kernel anyway). Thanks for the tips! -- Élie Charest [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://archie.homelinux.net:8080

Onother typo... It should be: rpm --rebuild kernel_srpm_name --without up --without smp --without secure --without doc --without BOOT will build only the enterprise kernel and the kernel-source ...

Yes. I d/l'd the binary twice, only to find both times I got an 'it's not an rpm' mesg from 'rpm -ivh'. After seein this post, an out of appreciation for your good efforts, I d/l'd the src.rpm and compiled it with --target athlon on a current cooker system. A little testing, no problems it's runnin as I type. Same as with .3 and .4tmb BTW, my initials are tmb also. My middle name's Morgan. -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas
