I installed the FC5 system on an Athlon i686 dual processor system

things seem to be fine. I installed kernel-devel (2054) to try a vmware

/lib/modules/2.6.15-1.2054-FC5smp/build pointing to
../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-smp-i686, but /usr/src/kernels
contains 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-i686 instead of 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5-smp-i686.
Vmware-config.pl barfs, saying the includes for the installed kernel can not
be found. I do not see this error on an x86_64 system. Only on an x86 smp
system. What are the correct links? Any idea on what I should do to get
vmware configured? Is the kernel-devel rpm just hosed?
no you installed the wrong rpm, kernel-smp-devel is what you needed to
install
