kernel-devel...

FC kernel-devel package, is this needed to compile module? what is the diff btw this and /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build?

If it is needed to compile module, then how do I make it from compiling the kernel-src package, assuming kernel-src package generates kernel-devel package?

Thanks.

As far as I understand, /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build comes from kernel-devel.

As far as I understand, for being able to compile modules, you can either install kernel sources from kernel-x.y.x.src.rpm or install kernel-devel.x.y.z.rpm.
See http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc3/x86/
