kernel-source i.e.:
urpmi kernel-source

then pick the one that goes with the one you use (do: uname -a to see which 
one you're running)

Good luck,

Well, for some reason they aren't on the dowmload edition CD's but can be had 
on the net.

Try some of the mandrake mirrors or add one to your urpmi sources (if your 
connection can take it) through the plf site
http://plf.zarb.org/ using easy-urpmi to set one up.

Good luck,
HarM

HarM;

I think we both forgot to say in a terminal type... I say we both forgot 
because I almost sent this without that detail. g

I also think uname -a might panic a newbie as soon as all the unknown 
unknown, etc stuff appears. I usually tell people to use uname -r instead. 
Less confusion generated. Example:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] nanook]$ uname -a
Linux h24-66-233-146 2.4.22-21mdk #1 Fri Oct 24 22:43:28 MDT 2003 i686 unknown 
unknown GNU/Linux
[EMAIL PROTECTED] nanook]$ uname -r
2.4.22-21mdk

Regards;
Charlie
