    Hi,

       I've just started using FC3 after trying and rejecting various Linux
    distros in the past, and it seems Linux has finally come good. My
    problem: there doesn't seem to exist yet a kernel-module for
    2.6.11-1.14_FC3, and I can't get one to compile. I've tried every
    on-line tutorial that google can find on the subject, but they all seem
    different, and more importantly, none of them have worked on this
    system. There seem to be some serious discrepancies WRT path names for
    the SRPMs (most guides mention a ~/rpmbuild/SPEC directory, but here I
    seem to have ~/rpmbuild/SPECS - and renaming the folder gets the compile
    further, but not to the end).
       Does anyone know of a good (read:currant/accurate) tutorial/guide for
    this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
      -joe.
