RPM build errors:

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Just wondered if you'd managed to find a solution as I'm having similar problems.

Thanks

i assume you have the nVIDIA chipset on your motherboard. i could be wrong but i think you need the kernel source installed. that will let you build the rpm, if i remember correctly you will find the new rpm in /usr/src/linux. it should get outputted anyways.

hope this helps
