It expects to find header files for version "2.4.16-1mdklinus", instead it finds version 2.4.16 in /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h. rainer> 'uname -r' gives me 2.4.16-1mdklinus. rainer> Is this the correct way to get the kernel headers? Yes, that is the only way to get headers for kernel linus, there is no kernel-linus source package :( Later, Juan. -- In theory, practice and theory are the same, but in practice they are different -- Larry McVoy
