# rpm -qa kernel-headers
if they ae installed will return
[students@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa kernel-headers
kernel-headers-2.6.26.3-29.fc9.i386
[students@localhost ~]$
if they are not present for your running kernel `uname -r`, then you may
# yum install kernel-headers
Bit of an old thread here, but maybe someone will find the following useful:
1. Some drivers that require the 'kernel headers' need header files
from the kernel-devel package, rather than (or more likely in addition
to) kernel-headers.
2. "$ rpm -ql package-name" will list all the files provided by that package.
