Hi,

I just solved this really irritating problem on my Laptop with fedora
10 installed.

In the terminal:

sudo yum install linux-server
sudo yum install linux-image-server
sudo yum install linux-headers-server

Err, are you sure this is Fedora 10? Fedora doesn't have any packages named like this. Either you are using a modified version or not Fedora at all. What Fedora does have is a alternative kernel called kernel-pae

# yum info kernel-pae
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Available Packages
Name       : kernel-PAE
Arch       : i686
Version    : 2.6.27.9
Release    : 159.fc10
Size       : 19 M
Repo       : updates
Summary    : The Linux kernel compiled for PAE capable machines
URL        : http://www.kernel.org/
License    : GPLv2
Description: This package includes a version of the Linux kernel with support for up to 64GB of high memory. It requires a CPU with Physical
Address Extensions (PAE). The non-PAE kernel can only address up to
4GB of memory. Install the kernel-PAE package if your machine has more than 4GB of memory.

This is essentially a alternative configuration developed by Igno Molnar from Red Hat. His introduction has a lot of the details
