I've been able to compile the modules for the latest beta on all of the
FC2 kernels that I've tried so far (after having applied the update you

You do not need the kernel-source rpm to compile modules for the 2.6
kernels.

/lib/modules/2.6.3-2.1.246/build/include/linux/version.h, which is part
of the kernel rpm.
