No, that's /usr/include/{linux,asm} you're thinking of. They should be _copies_ of the kernel headers glibc was built against, and not symlinks to /usr/src/linux/{include,asm}. /usr/src/linux can be whatever you like, and third-party, out-of-three modules tend to look there (after /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build and /usr/src/linux-$(uname -r)) for the current kernel headers. -- ilmari ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
