    Thanks all for your kind and patient responses to my query. As much as I
    would like to take the time to read everything that is released about
    everything in the world, particularly the fledgling Fedora project I
    sadly don't have enough time to do that. Its particularly easy for me to
    get confused when a time honored tradition is changed.

    I guess what I found particularly confusing in my search was the fact
    there was no /usr/src/linux, apparently that has changed and there was
    no installable package from either yum or apt that addressed the source
    need. I apologize for not reading the release notes, but I'm in the
    process of trying to use FC for a multi-million dollar, multi-
    architectural aircraft control and simulation environment. So in
    addition to having two corporations, several executive VP's, severe
    deadlines, and insufficient staffing I now must read all the project
    documentation. Whether or not you realize it, changes like this can
    cause great management discomfort over the use of FC.

    Anyway, thats my pain, sorry for sharing. Thanks again for your
    responses!
