Dear All, I use a raid card on my Centos 5.4 server. Whenever I updated the kernel, I used to compile drivers of the card for the new kernel. I have done this many times in the past without any problem. But this time after installing the new kernel files given below, I can not compile the new driver anymore. kernel-headers-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 kernel-PAE-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 The make command can not find /include/linux/version.h file with the following error. But the file is already there. make KERNELDIR= /lib/modules/2.6.18-164.9.1.el5PAE/build grep: /include/linux/version.h: No such file or directory expr: syntax error ../../../inc/linux/Makefile.def:85: *** Only kernel 2.4/2.6 is supported but you use 2.. Stop. [root at server linux]#locate include\/linux\/version.h command gives the following result. /usr/include/linux/version.h /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-128.1.1.el5-PAE-i686/include/linux/version.h /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-164.9.1.el5-PAE-i686/include/linux/version.h /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-92.1.18.el5-PAE-i686/include/linux/version.h I would appreciate any help. Thank you. Mufit Eribol

I don't have a machine that runs the 164.9.1 PAE kernel but the packages seems ok on my mirror: $ rpm -qlp kernel-PAE-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5.i686.rpm | grep build /lib/modules/2.6.18-164.9.1.el5PAE/build $ rpm -qlp kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5.i686.rpm | \ grep "/include/linux/config.h" /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-164.9.1.el5-PAE-i686/include/linux/config.h You could start by checking the symlink: $ ls -ld /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build ..then the contents of the .../include/linux/ dir: $ ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include/linux/ /Peter> kernel-headers-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 > kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 > kernel-PAE-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 > > The make command can not find /include/linux/version.h file with the > following error.

So the source path seems to be missing somewhere... JD
