what's with the stk16 ?  At any rate, you need the packages it told
you need above.  Install them with yum.


stk16 is the 16k Kernel Stack from
http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/full/downloads-fc5-kernel-i686.php

I downloaded all that yum would download and I am still getting this:

]$ rpmbuild -ba nvidia-kmod.spec --target $(uname -m) --without userland
Building target platforms: i686
Building for target i686
error: Failed build dependencies:
        kernel-smp-devel-i686 = 2.6.17-1.2139_FC5 is needed by
nvidia-kmod-1.0.8762-2.2.6.17_1.2139_FC5.i686

when I do yum install kernel-smp-devel
I get nothing to do.
