here's a trick for SuSe for you: o fire up YAST o select the Install and Remove Software module o when it appears, select "Search" from the Filter combobox o in the Search edit, type "kernel" (without the quotes, of course ;) and _only_ click the Name option from the Search In box (so you don't get tons of packages that use the word "kernel" in their description, for instance) o click the Search button and you'll probably get two packages: kernel-docs and kernel-source. guess which one you want? after you install kernel-source, you'll find it in /usr/src/linux. - -- Aaron J.
