I have the most current kernel headers that RH offers installed
(glibc-kerndeader-2.4-7.20), but I don't have the source code for this
kernel version (2.4.18-24.8.0) installed.  Do I need to? I also the rpm
command doesn't seem to do anything now?  I got the kernel-source as an
rpm and can't install it?

I tried just rebuilding the src rpm and got this error as it tried to

install: cannot stat 'nvidia.o': No such file or directory
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.50676

I removed the previous NVIDIA_kernel rpm before I tried to rebuild this
one.  Is that causing a problem?  Thanks for all your help,

Jennifer
