What exactly is it that happened? I am not clear on what is the name of the directory(?) that is missing. "modules"? Doesn't sount likely.
What is missing is "/lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop/build". Do you have the kernel source for 2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop installed? "build" is usually a symlink to the source.

The kernel source is installed, as is kernel-desktop, but I see nothing in the list from Software Management about kernel source for desktop. Also in my desktop box, Software Manage doesn't show anything with kernel, desktop, and source all in the same line.. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
