Re: Installing Realtek Ethernet Card on Fedora 9

Hi all,

I'm trying to install the card using the files and instruction from the vendor's website as Fedora couldn't get the card working after the installation.

When using the "make clean modules" command, I get this:

[root@ localhost r8168-8.008.00]# make clean modules
make -C src/ clean
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/Aiman/Download/r8168-8.008.00/src'
rm -rf *.o *.ko *~ core* .dep* .*.d .*.cmd *.mod.c *.a *.s .*.flags .tmp_versions Module.symvers Modules.symvers *.order

[root@ localhost r8168-8.008.00]# And eventually can't continue the installation.
As I read through, I used yum to update the kernel-devel package, but with no luck.

You must have the wrong version of kernel-devel installed. You're running an older kernel, but you probably updated to the most recent kernel-devel package. You must install a matching version of kernel-devel for your running kernel.
