Jose,
I installed from source pulled from kernel.org. I don't know if there are rpms anywhere for this.

Mates,
What is the best way to get and install the 2.6.20 kernel on Suse 10? Are there development binaries somewhere? Do I have to compile from source? I am doing this because I need the version 1.3 dri kernel driver. Any other suggestions.

Hi
Nope, I don't think so, I had to build from scratch, I don't know of any distro using that version already. Even 10.2 does not come with that version.
Here is a link for kernel compiling, free to download on pdf format:
Hope it helps
Kernel 2.6.20.* used to be available from this address: ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/x86_64 BUT, they now have dropped the 2.6.20.* in favor of an unstable 2.6.21.*. I could just kick myself for not saving it while I had it on my hard drive. BUT, I had a major problem and lost everything and had to start over. 2.6.20.* worked VERY well with openSuSE 10.2. - - (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
