Install problem: 'buildmeister'?


I have Fedora Core 1 (kernel v2.4.22-1.2215.nptl) on a Shuttle XPC SN41G2 box. I'm trying to get the onboard ethernet to work, but have encountered problems.
When I try to install the Nvidia ethernet driver I get the following message:

[root@localhost xxxx]# rpmbuild --rebuild NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0261.src.rpm
Installing NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0261.src.rpm
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
warning: user buildmeister does not exist - using root
Segmentation fault
[root@localhost xxxx]#

Does anyone know the solution to this problem? Do I need to create a user named "buildmeister" or is that from a package I don't have installed?

Thanks,
RINGER

I dont know but Ive never installed drivers from an rpm file using rpmbuild.
Are you sure you arent confused or is that a stupid question.
Please elaborate.
