On my 10.3 machine, I have NEVER had to set environment variables OR make
symlinks
or any such to compile either kernels or the device drivers. So, initially, I
only had the source for .30 in
an RPM (initially) and installed it via zypper and later from a *.tgz. When
it didn't work, I switched to the
current src version via YAST and pulled in the SYMs at the same time. Same
error.
That was when I cried 'HELP' here in the forum. Only then did I try the
creation of symlinks (but removed each
when it didn't change anything).
Yes, I'm confused, probably scatterbrained, (and definitately stupid), but I
was following
a previously good scenerio copied from my notes from sucesssful compilations on
my 10.3 machines.
I do appreciate the help and suggestions, but so far, no-go.

I see further conversation about symlinks, so my fast response last night,
wasn't clear.
kernel-pae-extra-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
nfs-kernel-server-1.1.3-18.2.1
kernel-source-2.6.27.29-0.1.1
kernel-syms-2.6.27.29-0.1.1 <----- Syms installed and agree
Not that version. You need kernel-syms 2.6.30, or 2.6.31, whatever is kernel
version that you plan to use.
Kernel-syms for 2.6.27 will not pull kernel -devel packages as in 2.6.27
source code contains linux-obj files, and kerenel devel packages don't exist.
Kernel devs moved linux-obj to separate package somewhere during Milestones,
as you have 2.6.30 you need the same version kernel-<flavor>-devel package.
Where <flavor> is desktop, default, xen etc.
