murphman9 Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 hey, i need help installing the kernel source, or finding it. I've been trying for the past few days to install madwifi for my wl-8310 wireless card but i haven't been able to since the kernel source isn't there. I read some other articles and people said to type urpmi kernel-source i did that and it says "no package named kernel-source" someone else said to install it from mandrake control center i searched for the kernel and was only able to find kernel-enterprize-2.3.4.27.0.pre2.1mdk-1-mdk and kernel-i586-1GB-2.6.7.1.10mdk-1-1mdk how else would i do it? can i download it somewhere? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
