Re: [pwc] Error linux/config.h

[Peter Baitz <>]

The new FC6 kernel source/tree no longer has a
linux/config.h file in it, so you can do one of
two things.   Either comment the line in the code
referencing config.h, or change directory to the
kernel directory location and finally under
linux/ directory do a 'touch config.h' and that
should fix it.

Note that kernel_headers may have some differences too
in the /usr/include/linux/ directory and I had to
put a config.h there too from my RHEL4 system to make
some compiling work.
