My guess would be that the kernel sources need to be installed, therre should be a mandrake package available or you could get the sources from the kernel.org site and uncompress them in /usr/src. You may need to make a symbolic link to the sources for the config programs to find them. Look in the Howto forum for threads on installing a 2.6 kernel. You just need the sources installed and linked.

Hi hard candy
The kernel source is already installed. Here is the putput which shows that.
[ssaurya@sauryalap Desktop]$ rpm -qa|grep kernel-source
kernel-source-2.6.3-7mdk
Any ideas.

You may want to double check, but I think that you need to configure the kernel sources (you can probably accept the default configuration) and run "make" to generate the modversions header file. I would research this some more or wait for someone with more experience to double check this. (After writing that, I think that as long as you did not actually install the kernel, it probably would not mess anything up). Or double check that "/usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h." is present. If not, you may need to do the above.
