I'm not at all sure I'm interpreting your information correctly. But it may be that although you have the source for 2.6.10 you may not have compiled the source nor have selected those other kernel options which make and allow the advanced kernel to use the new features or options it offers beyond 2.6.8 (which could include the drivers, etc. to run the devices you are interested in. Remember that if you don't select the options for those drivers before the kernel is actually built the kernel will and can build itself -- after invocation, to do so of course, only with standard settings).

but when I do a make config it shots off an error
saying that it has located the header files, but the
complete source code is missing or incomplete.

So i tried to update the kernel using a rpm (kernel
and kernel source 2.6.10)   but it said that the
packages where already there.

Is there a step that i'm missing?   The instructions
call for kernel 2.6.8, but i'm using 2.6.10, could
that be the problem?
