Hey Guys tried installing Intel 845 graphic driver downloaded from intel site but it throwed out the following errors

Code:

make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-53.el5/build SUBDIRS=/root/915chipset/dripkg/agpgart-2.0 modules
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.18-53.el5/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [default] Error 2
Makefile.linux:151: *** Cannot find a kernel config file.  Stop.

Pls help me out to fix this Problem!!!!!!!1

Why are you trying to build the driver rather than just installing the one that is available as an RPM for your distro (EL5 or Centos5 by the looks of things)?

Thanks a lot for the reply I have installed using the rpms. But my question is why is this Kernel Config file is missing and how can i add this to my Linux distro!!!!!

I don't know. Do you have kernel-headers and kernel-devel both installated? These are both normally required if you wish to build something against your kernel.
