/lib/modules/<kernel>/build

[Scott Robbins-2]

I'm wondering if this is just some oddball Just Me(TM) thing.  I haven't
seen it mentioned, but haven't been following the list that closely
lately.

On the latest updated F12.i686.PAE, trying to build something failed.
This was because /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-122.fc12.i686.PAE/build was
linked to /usr/src/2.6.31.5-122.fc12.i686.PAE.  However, when installing
the kernel-devel package, the /usr/src directory didn't have the PAE
suffix.  Manually renaming it fixed the issue for now, but I've not run
into that before, and am wondering if it's just some oddity that
happened during updates at some point.

Forrest: This is the burden we bear, brother. We have a gig that
would inevitably cause any girl living to think we are cool upon
cool. Yet, we must Clark Kent our way through the dating scene,
never to use our unfair advantage. Thank God we're pretty.

Did you install kernel using Yumex ?
If so delete kernel and reinstall with yum on command line.

No, I'd done it with yum.  I may just run a fresh install on this
machine anyway, and I'll see if the problem persists.

Thanks for the input.

Didn't you want to install kernel-PAE-devel instead of kernel-devel?

Apologies to Bruno.)

Ah, I've been working with 64 bit too long.  I had thought it would do
that automatically--that is, choose the devel to match the existing
kernel.

Thanks, that answers that question.  :)

Giles: I need you to take Spike for a few days.
Xander: What?
Spike: What?
Anya: What?
Spike: I'm not stayin' with him.
Giles: I have a friend who's coming to town, and I'd like us to
be alone.
Anya: Oh, you mean an orgasm friend?
Giles: Yes, that's exactly the most appalling thing you could
have said.
