in a fit of poor judgment, i tried to test the new 2.5.66 kernel on my RH 8.0 box, and not only did it explode in glorious ways, it made a mess of my nvidia setup.
in recovering to an older, working kernel, i now find i can't rebuild the NVIDIA kernel src rpms (loads of parse errors from /usr/include files). i'm not sure why i'm getting compile-time errors when i've never had them before, but i accidentally removed the kernel source directory for the current good kernel, which means that the sym link "/lib/modules/???/build" is now pointing at a non-existent kernel source directory under /usr/src (yes, i was eventually going to get around to that). so, before i spend a lot of time on this, what is the function of that symlink, and could having it point at a non-existent kernel source directory be causing the rebuild of my NVIDIA kernel src rpm to blow up with dozens of parse errors from include files? (not having the kernel source directory for the current running kernel doesn't affect anything else -- system runs fine otherwise.) rday -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
