	Is this the Kernel you have installed?

	What's the output of

	ls - l /boot/

	?

	Looks like you have the standard rh9 kernel installed.  That's 2.4.20-8 
not 2.4.20-20.9.

	Why apt-get want's to install 2.4.20-29.9 modules in that case?  I have 
no idea.

	Just a guess, though!

Hi Torsten,

I did what you said (ls -l /boot/) and here is the output:

Does this mean that I have 2.4.20-8 installed or 2.4.20-20.9 (remember, 
I'm a newbie to Linux)?  I'm guessing from the output that I have both 
the original kernel (2.4.20-8) and the 2.4.20-20.9.  When I start up, it 
looks like I'm booting with 2.4.20-20.9...

I've setup my mail account on the Linux machine, but I had to type this 
response up based on the original message received on my other machine, 
so if the formatting is wonky, I apologize.

Thanks,
