    I am trying to get Alsa installed on FC2T2
    which has kernel-2.6-1.65.
    I am needing to install the
    kernel-source-2.6.1-1.65.i386.rpm .
    But the install blows up complaining of a missing
    file:
    /usr/src/linux-2.6.1-1.65/include/linux/version.h
    I checked, and sure enough it isn't there.

    What to do about it. I read somewhere that the new
    Make clean now wipes out version.h
    Is this maybe what happened when the Fedora
    distribution
    folks put out the kernel-source RPM?

    Whatever the case, now how do I get a valid version.h
    file to stick in where it belongs so that I can
    install
    the kernel-source and get on with the installation of
    Alsa?

    I did find a version.h file located at
    /lib/modules/2.6.1-1.65/build/include/linux/version.h

    But I have no earthly idea if that contains the same
    information that would exist in the kernel build
    needed for the RPM script to complete.

    This is what is in that file:
    #define UTS_RELEASE "2.6.1-1.65"
    #define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132609
    #define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) <<
    8) + (c))

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Doug
