From an rpm-based distribution background, it does, actually. You typically have to install a "xyzzy-devel" package before you can compile something related to "xyzzy", so it is quite natural to look for a "kernel-devel" package providing whatever is necessary to build kernel modules; and "cd kernel ; make devel-pkg" reads almost literally like "make kernel-devel.rpm". -- Tilman Schmidt E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bonn, Germany Diese Nachricht besteht zu 100% aus wiederverwerteten Bits.
