I did a <sudo yum install> obviously without the braces shown here and
after install received the following error in /var/log:
Makefile:181: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current
Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again. Stop.
Where is the kernel? Shouldn't the install have known?
I'll bet you haven't installed the development headers for the kernel. Try
"yum install kernel-headers." That's different than the kernel itself. If
that doesn't work, you may need to install the full development stuff
"kernel-devel"
Or,, if you want to be specific, for me it's
kernel-headers-3.9.9-302.fc19.x86_64
kernel-3.9.9-302.fc19.x86_64
but of course that would depend on what kernel you are running...
