Fedore 2.6.18-1.2868.fc6xen header files?

[Jacques Butcher]

Thanks Leo.  That was a very quick response.  I also new to the mailing 
list.  I decided not to give up so quickly on Linux this time.

I get the following when running yum install kernel-headers.

[root at localhost linux]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.18-1.2868.fc6xen #1 SMP Fri Dec 15 18:20:31 
EST 2006 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
