OK, Kernel installed, and boots into run-level 3 fine. There are a couple of
error messages logged about missing acpi modules (for specific laptops by the
look of it).
Tried to install the NVidia driver and it complained about using the wrong
compiler version, which I chose to ignore, but then failed before the compile
stage with:
ERROR: The kernel header file
'/lib/modules/2.6.22.5-18-rt/build/include/linux/version.h' does not
exist. The most likely reason for this is that the kernel source files
in '/lib/modules/2.6.22.5-18-rt/build' have not been configured.
Can boot back into the default kernel without a problem, but am completely at
a loss. I know this is getting a bit off topic for the list but would be
grateful for any further advice.

It will. Anway you can't install nvidia without
the matching
sources. Try
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/su
se/x 86_64/kernel-rt-2.6.22.5-18.x86_64.rpm with
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/su
se/x 86_64/kernel-source-2.6.22.5-18.x86_64.rpm
This is the kernel for the coming openSUSE-10.3 but it still works
under 10.2.
Many thanks for that pointer. Do I need any other kernel packages
from the same place (kernel-syms for example)?
