Thanks for the reply.<br><br>I do have the latest yum from the planetccrma repository, and as far as I can tell I do have the proper kernel sources, i.e. they show up in /usr/src/kernels. Or am I missing something? <br><br>
Would it be worth removing all the kernels and kernels sources manually (with rpm, perhaps) then regetting the latest planetccrma kernel and sources? Or is there a chance that may break something?<br><br>Thanks.<br><br>- martin

<br><br>Someone I saw had problems getting the kernel-devel package for the ccrma<br>kernel, as, a "yum install kernel-devel" was trying to get a kernel-devel<br>package for the Fedora kernel. I don't have that problem as I use both Yum,
<br>and Apt on FC5. Apt for Fedora core, updates, and extras repos, and Yum just<br>for the planetccrma ones. If you have problems, a workaround would be to<br>temporarily set, Fedora core, updates, and extras repos to "Enabled=0" (not
